Sabres Injury Updates From Practice: Rasmus Dahlin Could Return Against Philadelphia

The Buffalo Sabres returned home after a mixed road trip, securing four points from six games, including a hard-fought 5-4 overtime win over the Toronto Maple Leafs and a late loss to the Montreal Canadiens. Key defenseman Rasmus Dahlin, sidelined since last week after an injury during a faceoff against the Florida Panthers, participated in Monday’s practice and expressed confidence in his readiness for Tuesday’s matchup against Philadelphia.

Dahlin, the team’s captain, missed three games but noted his recovery was progressing faster than expected, hinting at a possible return to action soon. Meanwhile, head coach Lindy Ruff highlighted the team’s resilience, particularly in overcoming deficits in games where Dahlin was absent, while also providing updates on other injured players, including forwards Justin Danforth and Tyson Kozak, both dealing with upper-body issues.

The Sabres will look to build momentum ahead of a road swing against Washington and the California teams later this week.
