Mattias Samuelsson News
Buffalo Sabres defenseman Mattias Samuelsson (undisclosed) will return from a one-game absence on Wednesday against Colorado. He sat out Monday's clash with Arizona after feeling "sore" during the morning skate. Ryan Johnson entered the lineup as his replacement and will likely have to make way for him on Wednesday. Samuelsson offers very little on the attacking front, but he plays a solid defensive game and has been a good source for blocks and hits for fantasy managers.
Buffalo Sabres defenseman Mattias Samuelsson (undisclosed) is questionable for Monday's action against Arizona. He left the morning skate early because he's feeling "sore," and it's unclear if Samuelsson will be able to push through the pain on Monday. The Swedish rearguard leads the Sabres with 52 blocks and 56 hits while having contributed one goal and two assists offensively in 25 outings. Ryan Johnson is expected to fill in for Samuelsson if he isn't available.
Buffalo Sabres defenseman Mattias Samuelsson (upper body) is a game-time decision for Monday's matchup against the Rangers. He was forced to exit Saturday's clash with New Jersey early after taking a stick to the face. However, Samuelsson looks to be on a comeback trail, as he skated Monday morning, which is a good sign regarding his availability. The defensive-minded blue-liner gives a good balance to the Sabres' first defensive pairing, which also includes Rasmus Dahlin. Samuelsson has only three points (one goal, two assists) in 18 games this season, but he's been doing plenty of dirty work, amassing 41 hits and 37 blocks.
Buffalo Sabres defenseman Mattias Samuelsson had to exit Friday's matchup against Philadelphia early due to a lower-body injury. He logged only four shifts and finished with 2:28 of ice time. There hasn't been an update on his status, but with Buffalo back in action Saturday against Toronto, it's likely Samuelsson will be forced to sit out at least one game. The 23-year-old has enjoyed a good start to the campaign, notching three points (one goal, two assists) in 11 games with 25 hits, 25 blocks, and a plus-four rating. He plays major minutes as Rasmus Dahlin's partner on the first defensive unit, and there's going to be a lot of extra shifts available for others if Samuelsson has to spend time on the sidelines.
