Sabres' Norris Nears Return After 21-Game Absence; Durability Concerns Linger

Buffalo Sabres veteran center Josh Norris is nearing a return to action after missing 21 games since being injured in the season's first game. Norris, who has played only four games with the Sabres, expressed frustration Tuesday, stating, "It’s never easy being out... I’ve been on the wrong side of it for a little bit now." While his return, potentially this coming weekend, would boost the team's depth at center, concerns about his durability persist given his history of injuries.
