The Buffalo Sabres complete their preseason schedule on Monday night, with the team’s mostly AHL squad taking on a split-squad Detroit Red Wings team. The Red Wings are splitting their players up, with half staying in Detroit to face the Penguins in a rescheduled game from Saturday. That game had to be postponed because of mechanical issues with the Penguins’ plane that prevented them from getting to Michigan.
Tonight’s Sabres game is set for a 7 p.m. puck drop at KeyBank Center. It will be broadcast on Sabres.com and WGR550.
Here is the expected roster for the Buffalo Sabres:
Forwards: Noah Ostlund, Ty Cheveldayoff, Brendan Warren, Josh Dunne, Mason Jobst, Olivier Nadeau, Brett Murray, Ty Tullio, Isak Rosen, Graham Slaggert, Viktor Neuchev, Anton Wahlberg, Konsta Helenius
