The Buffalo Sabres have just one game on the slate this week with the upcoming NHL All-Star break, and it could’ve have come at a better time. Tage Thompson, Dylan Cozens and Mattias Samuelsson are all day-to-day.
The Thompson news is the most unexpected of the three. Cozens and Samuelsson have been day-to-day for a bit, but per The Buffalo News’ Mike Harrington, both practiced on Monday and expect to play Wednesday.
Per the team, Thompson is day-to-day with an upper-body injury. We’ll have to wait and see if he can play on Wednesday when the Sabres host the Carolina Hurricanes.
