Report: Sabres trade JJ Peterka to Mammoth to acquire Kesselring, Doan
Doan, a 23-year-old winger, is the son of longtime Arizona Coyotes star Shane Doan, and his departure is the organization's latest move that separates this Salt Lake City chapter from the past. He had seven goals and 19 points in his rookie season with Utah last year.

Kesselring, a 25-year-old defenseman, played alongside Doan for the US when it won the world championships in May for the first time since 1933. He completed his second full NHL season with seven goals and 29 points — both career highs.
The Sabres were expected to shake up their roster after a disappointing finish in Lindy Ruff's first season back with the team. Buffalo finished 14th in the Eastern Conference standings and extended its NHL-record playoff drought to a 14th season.
The Mammoth, meantime, acquire a promising offensive star while keeping their No. 4 pick in the NHL draft on Friday night.

Gout Gout on notice after 16-year-old rocks athletics world with epic 100m time
Aussie sprint sensation Gout Gout could have a new rival on his hands after 16-year-old Sorato Shimizu recorded the fastest-ever Under-18 100m time for a male athlete. Gout is arguably the biggest young star in athletics having just taken part in his first Diamond League meet and dazzling fans. Aussie 800m champ Peter Bol claimed Gout can eventually eclipse Usain Bolt's feats with the Queensland sprinter already showcasing his talents in front of the world at just 17 years old. However, another young star could soon be stealing the attention if he continues his trajectory. Shimizu went into the record books having lowered the 100m Under-18 record in a high school event in Japan on the weekend. The 16-year-old crossed the line in 10.00 flat, to become the joint-fifth fastest Japanese athlete ever across all ages. The Japanese star beat the previous record of 10.06. And his emergence in the athletics community could give Gout further fuel to focus and compete in the 100m event. Gout has suggested the 200m event fits his style more with the extra length giving him time to hit full stride. 10.00s at the age of 16!!!!!🤯🤯🔥🔥Sorato Shimizu 🇯🇵 storms runs a massive Age-16 World Record of 10.00s (1.7) over 100m at the Inter High School Championships in Japan!He broke the previous age-group record of 10.09s by 🇹🇭 Puripol — Track & Field Gazette (@TrackGazette) July 26, 2025 But Gout has gone under 10 seconds twice in his young career and it just so happened to be on the same night at the national championships in Perth. Unfortunately, both times did not count as an offiical record because of wind assistance. Although there already appears to be some hype around a future showdown with Shimizu and Gout with both likely to be in their prime come the 2032 Brisbane Olympics. And in a twist, there are revelations Gout is keen to run the 100m event at the upcoming Commonwealth Games, which will then see him quickly jet to the US for the 200m at the world juniors. Fans can start to get excited for a potential showdown in the near future with Gout, Lachlan Kennedy and now Japanese star Shimizu all emerging as talents on the track. Now we want to see Shimizu vs Gout Gout 😀 — Deepak Venkatesh (@deepakvenkatesh) July 26, 2025 View this post on Instagram A post shared by 月刊陸上競技 (@getsuriku_photo) Gout Gout focusing on 200m event in 2025 While Gout is focusing on the 200m event ahead of the Tokyo World Championships in September, he hasn't ruled out competitions in the 100m sprint. After his two sub-10s runs, Gout admitted it does give him confidence. "This definitely boosts my confidence levels. Sub-10 is what every sprinter hopes for and to get it so early this year is definitely great. It also boosts my confidence for the main event for me, like the 200m,' Gout said back in May when running under 10s. Since the national championships, which Rohan Browning won with a time of 10.01, Gout has turned his attention to his favourite event. And most recently at the Golden Spike in Ostrava, Gout showed why the 200m is where he could break records. Gout chased down Reynier Mena on the straight to record a national record of 20.02 and take first place in the meet. The Aussie was a metre behind Mena as they entered the final 50 metres, but finished well ahead in what was an incredible finish to his first race in Europe. And commentator Tim Hutchings pointed out Gout's incredible back 50m run appears to be an 'optical illusion' and compared to that of Bolt. "The strongest part of his race is always the last 50 metres. He holds his form so well, it's an optical illusion. It looks like he is accelerating. But he is not, nobody does. Maybe Bolt did back then, but Gout wouldn't be, he is holding his form. As the others slow, they tire, he eases past them," Hutchings explained.

Willing To Help: D-Man Tyler Kleven Ready To Take Next Step On Both Ends Of Ice For Ottawa
You might not have noticed, which is odd considering the subject in question is a 6-foot-5, 220-pound defenseman, but Tyler Kleven was all over the place during the Ottawa Senators' too-short-but-still-inspiring 2025 playoff run. His shot-pass from the point was tipped to tie the score in Game 2, his poised breakout led to another tying goal in Game 3, and his sense to jump up into the play and gain the zone led to the Senators' overtime goal in Game 4.
