Sabres' Rasmus Dahlin: Could return Friday
Dahlin (back) is expected to get a full practice Thursday which could clear the way for him to play in Friday's matchup with Toronto, Paul Hamilton of WGR Sports Radio 550 reports.
Based on Dahlin's timeline, he won't be available for Tuesday's clash with Montreal but appears to be making strides in his recovery. The 24-year-old blueliner will be sidelined for his seventh consecutive game due to his back problem. Prior to getting hurt, Dahlin was stuck in a four-game pointless streak, his longest of the 2024-25 campaign.

Sabres' Rasmus Dahlin: Lands on injured reserve
Dahlin (back) was placed on injured reserve Monday, per the NHL media site.
Head coach Lindy Ruff said Monday that Dahlin went through a rehab skate with no issues and could return to game action Saturday against the Capitals or Sunday against the Maple Leafs. The defenseman has been dealing with back spasms since Buffalo's Dec. 3 matchup against the Avalanche, and he could still be in the mix to be activated over the weekend. However, Dahlin's move to injured reserve allowed the Sabres to activate Jordan Greenway (undisclosed) ahead of Monday's game against the Red Wings.

Sabres' Rasmus Dahlin: Targeting Saturday return
Dahlin (back) is progressing in his recovery and is hoping to play against the Capitals or Maple Leafs on Saturday or Sunday, respectively, Lance Lysowski of The Buffalo News reports.
Based on his timeline, Dahlin will be sidelined for at least the Sabres' next two contests as he works his way back from his back injury. Prior to getting hurt, the 24-year-old blueliner was stuck in a four-game point drought, during which he generated 10 shots on net, four hits and four blocked shots while averaging 24:25 of ice time. Once cleared to return, Dahlin will link back up with the No. 1 power-play unit and should eventually break out of his slump. With Jordan Greenway (undisclosed) likely to be activated ahead of Monday's clash with Detroit, Dahlin may have to be designated for injured reserve in order to clear up a roster spot.

Sabres' Rasmus Dahlin: Ruled out Thursday
Dahlin (back) will not be an option against the Jets on Thursday but isn't expected out long-term after head coach Lindy Ruff told reporters, "It should be short-term, but you never know."
Dahlin will be replaced in the lineup by Dennis Gilbert, but it's Jacob Bryson who should see the biggest uptick in ice time. On the top power-play unit, Alex Tuch will join up with the No. 1 group in Dahlin's stead. For his part, the 24-year-old Dahlin was stuck in a four-game pointless streak prior to getting hurt and will no have to wait a bit before getting a chance to end his slump.

Sabres' Rasmus Dahlin: Goalless to open season
Dahlin has yet to score a goal this season despite registering 10 shots through five games.
Dahlin put up five shots in Wednesday's 6-5 defeat to the Penguins, so it's possible a goal is right around the corner for the blueliner. The fact that he's managed just one assist as well during this five-game stretch is no doubt a concern for fantasy players. Unless he can turn things around quickly, he may not be able to repeat last season's 20-goal, 59-point performance.

Sabres' Rasmus Dahlin: Playing Friday
Dahlin (undisclosed) is playing in Friday's exhibition contest against EHC Red Bull Munchen of Germany's Deutsche Eishockey Liga.
Dahlin missed some preseason action due to the injury, but it appears he'll be fine for the start of the campaign. Buffalo's 2024-25 season will begin with a pair of games Oct. 4-5 against New Jersey in Prague. Friday's contest is being held in Munich.

Sabres' Rasmus Dahlin: Cleared for contact
Dahlin (undisclosed) joined the Sabres on the ice Wednesday without wearing a non-contact jersey.
Dahlin missed Tuesday's preseason contest against Pittsburgh, but he seems to be making progress. Perhaps he'll be in action versus Red Bull Munchen on Friday, but of course, there's no reason for Buffalo to rush him during training camp, so it wouldn't be surprising if he ends up missing additional exhibition action.
