Utah Mammoth Trade for Buffalo Forward JJ Peterka, Who Signs 5-Year Extension

  • Late Wednesday night, the Utah Mammoth completed a trade with the Buffalo Sabres, sending Michael Kesselring and Josh Doan in exchange for JJ Peterka, a 23-year-old forward.
  • The trade followed months of discussions and rumors, with Peterka seeking to leave Buffalo and the Sabres receiving multiple calls but insisting he was not for sale.
  • Peterka, originally from Munich, tallied 27 goals and 68 points across 77 games during the previous season, while Utah had difficulty securing a stable option for their second-line right wing position.
  • The Mammoth secured Peterka with a five-year contract extension totaling $38.5 million, or $7.7 million per year, which Mammoth president Chris Armstrong described as an important move in their efforts to establish a consistently competitive team.
  • This move is designed to bolster Utah’s offensive lineup with emerging young forwards and reflects their proactive approach as the 2025 NHL offseason approaches.
