Rasmus Dahlin Ruled Out for Saturday's Game Due to Upper-Body Injury

Buffalo Sabres defenseman Rasmus Dahlin has been ruled out for Saturday's matchup against the Montreal Canadiens due to an upper-body injury and will not travel with the team. Although head coach Lindy Ruff indicated Dahlin is progressing and could return Wednesday against Philadelphia, the 26-year-old will miss at least one contest. Over six appearances this season, Dahlin has recorded two goals, two assists, 14 blocked shots, and eight hits in 23:38 of ice time.
