Sabres' Cody Eakin: Under the weather
Eakin missed practice Monday due to illness, Paul Hamilton of WGR Sports Radio 550 reports.
Considering Eakin has just one point in his last 20 outings, few fantasy players will be impacted by his potential absence. Considering the veteran center has recorded just nine shots over that stretch, he will be hard-pressed to break out of his current slump.

Sabres' Cody Eakin: Expected to play
Eakin (undisclosed) is on the ice for warmups, and he's expected to play Thursday versus the Blues, Lance Lysowski of The Buffalo News reports.
Eakin was deemed a game-time call entering Thursday's game. The veteran center will likely continue to play in a fourth-line role, so his playing status won't mean much to fantasy managers going forward.

Sabres' Cody Eakin: Game-time call
Eakin (undisclosed) will be a game-time decision for Thursday's matchup with St. Louis, Paul Hamilton of WGR Sports Radio 550 reports.
Eakin's only picked up 12 points through 68 appearances this year, so most fantasy managers shouldn't need to track his status ahead of puck drop. If Eakin's unable to play, John Hayden will likely remain in the lineup versus the Blues.

Sabres' Cody Eakin: Suiting up Sunday
Eakin (undisclosed) will play Sunday against the Kings, Lance Lysowski of The Buffalo News reports.
Eakin was originally deemed questionable due to an undisclosed injury, but he'll be able to power through in his usual bottom-six role. His availability likely won't move the needle much in fantasy circles considering Eakin has mustered only 11 points and an ugly minus-14 rating in 51 games this season.

Eakin has averaged 13:23 of ice time and generated three points over the last 15 games. His most recent NHL point was a goal in a 4-2 loss to Dallas on Sunday. The severity of his undisclosed injury is currently unknown, per Lance Lysowski of The Buffalo News.

Sabres' Cody Eakin: Picks up helper in win
Eakin logged a power-play assist and two shots on goal in Saturday's 3-1 win over the Coyotes.
Eakin snapped a 14-game point drought with his helper on Kyle Okposo's tally in the first period. Playing on the Sabres' fourth line has done no favors for Eakin's offense, as the veteran forward has just nine points in 38 appearances. That's more than the seven points he put up in 46 games last year, but it's far from the necessary level to help in most fantasy formats.

Sabres' Cody Eakin: Helps spark offense in victory
Eakin picked up a goal and an assist with three shots in Friday's 4-1 win over Montreal.
Eakin produced both of his points during the second period, giving the Sabres a 2-1 lead with his goal midway through the frame before setting up Kyle Okposo's short-handed tally six minutes later. The effort snapped a seven-game pointless streak for the 30-year-old Eakin, who has two goals and three points in 14 contests on the year.

Sabres' Cody Eakin: Likely playing Tuesday
Eakin (upper body) is expected to play in Tuesday's game against the Sharks, Paul Hamilton of WGR Sports Radio 550 reports.
Eakin missed the last five games and hasn't suited up since Oct. 19 while dealing with an upper-body injury. He's been at practice the last two days and should be back in the lineup Tuesday. The veteran forward scored two points while averaging 13:42 of ice time in three games before the injury.

Sabres' Cody Eakin: Ditches non-contact sweater
Eakin (upper body) practiced Monday in a regular jersey and could be an option against San Jose on Tuesday, per John Vogl of The Athletic.
Eakin has been on the shelf for the club's last five games due to his upper-body issue but appears to be trending in the right direction. Before getting hurt, the Winnipeg native generated one goal and one assist in three games this year. If Eakin does get onto the ice Tuesday, it will likely be in a bottom-six role, though he could push Tage Thompson for a spot on the second line.

Sabres' Cody Eakin: No timetable for return
Eakin (upper body) will not play Thursday against Anaheim and will be out indefinitely, Paul Hamilton of WGR Sports Radio 550 reports.
While it's obviously unclear when Buffalo expects Eakin back, this news will likely keep him out for Sunday's game against the Kings as well. Thursday will be his fourth consecutive missed game.

Sabres' Cody Eakin: Targeting Thursday return
Eakin (upper body) is hoping to be available for Thursday's matchup with Anaheim, Paul Hamilton of WGR Sports Radio 550 reports.
While Eakin won't be an option versus the Lightning on Monday, the fact that he has a target return date is certainly a step in the right direction. Prior to suffering his upper-body injury, the 30-year-old center tallied one goal on seven shots, one assist and three blocks in three contests. Look for Eakin to slot into a bottom-six role once given the all-clear.

According to coach Don Granato, Eakin (undisclosed) "will miss the next couple of games," John Vogl of The Athletic reports.
Eakin will miss Friday's game against Boston and Saturday's matchup with New Jersey at a minimum. The 30-year-old pivot has picked up two points through three games this season.

Sabres' Cody Eakin: Undergoing evaluation
Eakin (undisclosed) is being evaluated and an update on his status will be provided Thursday, Paul Hamilton of WGR Sports Radio 550 reports.
The specific nature of Eakin's issue remains a mystery, but at this point he should be considered day-to-day. The 30-year-old pivot has picked up two points through three games this campaign.

Sabres' Cody Eakin: Collects power-play tally
Eakin scored a power-play goal in Saturday's 2-1 shootout win over the Coyotes.
The 30-year-old center only saw 12 seconds of ice time with the man advantage, hopping over the boards at the tail end of a power play split in half by the first intermission, but Eakin made them count as he scored his first PP goal since 2018-19 with Vegas, and only the 12th of his career. He only has one 20-goal campaign on his resume and is expected to fill a bottom-six role in Buffalo, but the Sabres are thin enough down the middle -- especially with Casey Mittelstadt (upper body) now joining Jack Eichel (neck) on the sidelines -- that Eakin could continue to sneak in opportunities in more fantasy-friendly situations.

Sabres' Cody Eakin: On ice for practice
Eakin (undisclosed) is on the ice for the first practice of Buffalo's training camp Thursday, John Vogl of The Athletic reports.
Eakin missed the final game of the 2020-21 season with an undisclosed issue, but it was never believed to be something that would carry over to the 2021-22 campaign. The 30-year-old pivot picked up seven points in 46 games last season.
