Buffalo has signed Jacob Bryson to a one-year, $900,000 contract extension.
Bryson has been a lineup-regular for the Sabres most of the 2024-25 season, recording seven points (0G / 7A) in 42 games. The 27-year-old defenseman was their 99th overall pick in the 2017 NHL Entry Draft.
Benson (illness) is doubtful to play in Utah on Thursday.
Benson is battling an illness and is unlikely to play on Thursday against the Utah Hockey Club. The 19-year-old forward is averaging 14:35 time-on-ice and has 23 points (10G / 13A) in 60 games this season.
Rosen has been loaned to Rochester (AHL).
Rosen was the 14th overall pick of the Sabres in the 2021 NHL Entry Draft and is still searching for his first career point through 10 NHL games. The 22-year-old played three games with the Sabres this season but has spent most of the 2024-25 campaign in the AHL, tallying 51 points (27G / 24A) in 52 games with Rochester.
Goalie Start
Luukkonen will start in Boston on Monday.
The Sabres are coming off an impressive 4-3 win over the Vegas Golden Knights, where Luukkonen saved 16 of 19 shots (.842 SV%). He will return to the crease on Monday against the Boston Bruins. The 26-year-old Luukkonen has a 3.19 GAA and .888 SV% in 49 appearances this season (22-21-4). The Sabres enter Monday's contest as -120 road underdogs against a Bruins club outscored 12-5 in their last two games (0-2-0).
Norris (undisclosed) is expected to remain out on Monday in Utah and is hopeful to return later in the week.
Norris has battled injuries the past few seasons, a trend that unfortunately has followed him to his new club, the Buffalo Sabres. The 25-year-old Norris was acquired by the Sabres two weeks ago in a trade that sent Dylan Cozens to the Ottawa Senators. Norris has been productive early in his tenure with Buffalo, recording two points (1G / 1A) and averaging 18:36 time-on-ice in three games.
Kulich (concussion) is expected to be out vs. Boston on Monday.
Kulich only played 8:08 time-on-ice before exiting Saturday's 4-3 victory over the Vegas Golden Knights due to a concussion and is unlikely to play on Monday against the Boston Bruins. The 20-year-old Kulich is averaging 14:23 time-on-ice and has 19 points (12G / 7A) in 49 games this season.
Goalie Start
Luukkonen is in the starter's crease at the Sabres' morning skate.
The Sabres are coming off an impressive 4-3 win over the Vegas Golden Knights, where Luukkonen saved 16 of 19 shots (.842 SV%). He will likely return to the crease on Monday against the Boston Bruins. The 26-year-old Luukkonen has a 3.19 GAA and .888 SV% in 49 appearances this season (22-21-4). The Sabres enter Monday's contest as -120 road underdogs against a Bruins club outscored 12-5 in their last two games (0-2-0).
Kulich is in concussion protocol and did not practice on Sunday.
Rosen has been recalled from Rochester (AHL).
Line Change
Kozak will draw into the Sabres lineup on Saturday.
Kozak will skate in his first NHL games since January 31st, replacing Josh Norris, who is sidelined with an undisclosed injury. Kozak has one assist and six shots on goal in 11 NHL games this season.
Line Change
Norris (undisclosed) will not play Saturday vs. the Golden Knights.
The Sabres said that Norris would be re-evaluated on Friday but he will not play Saturday vs. Vegas. Expect the Sabres to release a detailed injury update in the near future. Tyson Kozak will replace him in the lineup on Saturday.
Goalie Start
Luukkonen will start Saturday vs. the Golden Knights.
Luukkonen gave up seven goals on 29 shots in the Sabres' loss in Detroit on Wednesday. Luukkonen has struggled recently, going 1-5-0 with a 4.67 GAA and .849 SV% in his last seven appearances. He's a risky option on Saturday as the Sabres host the Golden Knights as +177 home underdogs.
