If development camp is any kind of barometer, the Buffalo Sabres might have a real gem in Alexander Nylander. The team’s young prospects practiced shootouts during the camp and Nylander completely stole the show.
Nylander, the eighth overall pick by the Sabres in the 2016 Draft, shows off all kinds of different moves, making even the incredible look easy.
Check out these slick skills.

The NHL might be gradually moving away from the shootout, but the Sabres should still be excited to know they may have a dynamic weapon waiting in the wings when it comes to the skills competition.
