- Buffalo Sabres Promising Prospect Is Heating Up
Buffalo Sabres prospect Anton Wahlberg is a promising young forward in the team's system. The Sabres are hoping that he can become a solid part of their roster in the future, as he has good upside. It is why the Sabres selected him with the 39th overall pick of the 2023 NHL Entry Draft.
Wahlberg has certainly been having a nice finish to the 2025-26 season with the Amerks, as he has been heating up offensively down the stretch. Wahlberg is currently on a six-game point streak, where he has two goals and four assists over that span. With this, the young forward is undoubtedly feeling it right now for Rochester.

Due to his hot streak, Wahlberg now has nine goals and has set new career highs with 27 assists and 36 points in 65 games this season with the Amerks. This is after he had 11 goals and 30 points in 63 games with Rochester during the 2024-25 season.
The Sabres will now be hoping that Wahlberg can continue to show promise down in the AHL with Rochester. If the 20-year-old keeps this kind of play up, it could open the door for him to make his NHL debut next season.
