- The Colorado Eagles, the AHL affiliate of the Colorado Avalanche, have acquired top Buffalo Sabres prospect J.J. Peterka in a trade.
- Peterka is a highly-touted forward who was a second-round pick of the Sabres in 2020 and is considered one of the organization's top young talents.
- This move strengthens the Avalanche's prospect pool and provides Peterka with the opportunity to develop at the AHL level before potentially earning a call-up to the NHL.
