NHL Giveaways Leaders: Buffalo Sabres
2025-26All situationsThrough 82 team games
This board ranks every NHL skater by giveaways, regular season only. Pick any season back to 2017-18 above the table.
A giveaway is a puck lost to the opponent through a player's own error. Puck carriers who handle it most give it away most, so stars appear near the top of this list. Giveaways are a negative category in a few leagues. Since 2024-25 the league records about twice as many as before, so compare within a season only.
Leader for the Buffalo Sabres in 2025-26: Rasmus Dahlin (BUF), 115 GV.

How to read it
Pucks given away by the player's own error, as credited by the scorer.
How reliable is it?
More touches mean more giveaways: the leaders are often the best puck carriers, not the worst.
