Tyson Kozak Fantasy Stats

Buffalo Sabres center Tyson Kozak (lower body) has been cleared to return to the lineup for Thursday's matchup against the St. Louis Blues. He's been sidelined for five games due to a lower-body issue. Kozak's return adds depth to a Sabres frontline that remains without Josh Norris (upper body) and Zach Benson (lower body), but he isn't an impactful player in fantasy hockey. Across seven appearances this season, Kozak has recorded two goals with five shots and 19 hits. Mason Geertsen will come out of the lineup on Thursday as a healthy scratch.

Buffalo Sabres center Tyson Kozak (lower body) has been ruled out for Saturday's contest against the Toronto Maple Leafs. He suffered a lower-body injury in a clash with the Maple Leafs on Friday night. Kozak left the game after only three shifts, finishing with 1:49 of ice time. The 22-year-old has popped up with a pair of goals from the fourth line in seven outings this season. Mason Geertsen is likely to step into the lineup and take Kozak's place on Saturday. Geertsen has averaged only a handful of minutes over four appearances this season, logging zero points, 12 penalty minutes, and six hits.
