Josh Doan is another player traded to the Sabres, leaving the Mammoth in need of a fresh start, which Schmidt's signing aims to fulfill.

Josh Doan was included in the trade to the Buffalo Sabres in exchange for JJ Peterka. He brings notable leadership to the team and has demonstrated scoring potential with 19 points in 51 games last season.

Josh Doan joins the Sabres, following in the footsteps of his father, the former NHL captain Shane Doan.

Josh Doan's move to the Sabres represents an opportunity for him to carve a consistent role at the NHL level after previously struggling for consistency with the Mammoth. His integration into the team's lineup could be crucial.
