Signed a one-year, two-way contract with the Sabres in July of 2025.
Scores in playoff debut
Metsa scored a goal in Saturday's 8-3 win over the Canadiens in Game 6.
ANALYSIS
Metsa made his playoff debut Saturday, replacing Luke Schenn in the lineup. Metsa had six points, 24 shots on net, 31 blocked shots and a plus-16 rating over 43 regular-season appearances in his first taste of NHL action this year. It's a statement that the 27-year-old was trusted over both of the Sabres' big defensive trade acquisitions in an elimination game, Logan Stanley being the other, and it suggests Metsa will remain in the lineup for Monday's Game 7.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
NHL debut likely on tap
Metsa will likely make his NHL debut against the Canadiens on Monday, Heather Engel of NHL.com reports.
ANALYSIS
The 27-year-old was recalled by the Sabres on Thursday, and while head coach Lindy Ruff didn't reveal the lineup following Monday's morning skate, Metsa seems likely to suit up since he left the ice early. He's made two appearances for AHL Rochester this year, and he was held to no points with a minus-2 rating.
