Released from PTO with Sabres
Kaleta (lower body) was released from his PTO with the Sabres on Friday, Bill Hoppe of the Olean Times Herald reports.Kaleta was never expected to occupy a spot on the Sabres' Opening Night roster, and his recent injury woes certainly haven't helped his cause. He'll head to AHL Rochester to begin the season, where he registered four points (one goal, three assists) in seven games in 2014-15.

Plays Thursday, But Exits With Injury
Kaleta played in Thursday's preseason contest, but later exited with a lower-body injury and will not return, Paul Hamilton of WGR Sports Radio 550 reports.Kaleta was dealing with a lower-body injury last week, and that is the same designation of the injury that forced him out of Thursday's contest as well. There's no indication of whether it was an aggravation of the previous issue or not, but the Sabres will likely take precautions to ensure players don't suffer a long-term injury. The 29-year-old doesn't stand much of a chance at making the Opening Night roster, but his trouble with injuries certainly doesn't help.

Sabres' Kaleta Practices Saturday
Kaleta (lower body) took part in the Sabres' morning skate Saturday, Bill Hoppe of the Olean Times Herald reports.Kaleta, who relayed Saturday that he had a bone chip in his knee, once appeared in line to miss the remainder of the season. However, with the winger working hard in his rehab over the last couple of weeks to get back on the ice, it looks like a return may not be far away. Once Kaleta gets in a few more skates, the Sabres should have a better timeline for his return.
