BUFFALO, N.Y. (WKBW) — The newest forward for the Buffalo Sabres showed plenty of love to the Sabres, after he was traded Thursday morning.
Syracuse's own Alex Tuch said in a Twitter thread on Thursday, "it’s been a dream of mine to put on the Sabres jersey."
I am going to miss the great group they have there. Now I want to say how excited I am to be a part of the Buffalo Sabres organization. Being from Upstate NY, it’s been a dream of mine to put on the Sabres jersey. Thank you Buffalo and I can’t wait to get started!
