Mattias Samuelsson Returns to Lineup for Sabres Against Blue Jackets

Mattias Samuelsson (lower body) will be in the lineup against the Columbus Blue Jackets on Thursday. The 26-year-old blueliner blew his previous career-best numbers out of the water last year by racking up 13 goals and 28 assists in 78 regular-season games. While Samuelsson provides notable offensive upside from the blue line, his lack of a power-play role limits his ceiling for elite fantasy value.
