The Buffalo Sabres are finally starting to get healthy as their season approaches the one-third mark. Defensemen Dmitry Kulikov and Josh Gorges and Nicolas Deslauriers all practiced yesterday ahead of tonight’s home game against the Washington Capitals.
Kulikov has been training with his teammates for a few days now, and could play tonight for the first time since November 9th when he aggravated a mid-body injury that he had sustained earlier in the pre-season. In the twelve games he has played so far, he is still yet to register a point and has six shots on goal with a -4 rating.
