The Sabres come in having lost six straight including a shootout loss in New Jersey. Derek Roy injured his shoulder against Atlanta on Sunday and he is day-to-day. If he can't go MacArthur will probably take his spot between Pominville and Hecht. The Sabres may dress seven defensemen and play Paetsch at forward if Roy can not play.
