Buffalo Sabres News

Konsta Helenius - Promoted from minors Helenius was recalled from AHL Rochester on Thursday, Heather Engel of NHL.com reports.

Impact Helenius has been lighting it up in the minors, racking up nine goals and 21 helpers in 34 appearances for the Americans. The 19-year-old center will likely serve as an emergency depth option versus Montreal on Thursday, though he would be making his NHL debut if he got into the lineup ahead of Tyson Kozak.

Josh Dunne - Lands on injured reserve Dunne (undisclosed) was placed on injured reserve Thursday, Heather Engel of NHL.com reports.

Impact The Sabres announced Wednesday that Dunne is expected to miss 4-6 weeks, so it isn't surprising to see him officially placed on injured reserve. The 27-year-old will presumably be sidelined until after the Olympic break, which concludes in late February.

Josh Doan - Dishes pair of helpers Doan notched two assists in Wednesday's 5-2 win over the Flyers.

Impact Doan has four goals and four assists over his last seven outings, a stretch bookended by multi-point efforts. The 24-year-old winger is up to 14 goals, 18 helpers, 105 shots on net, 42 hits, 23 PIM and a minus-2 rating over 45 appearances. This is a breakout season for Doan, who looks to be a key part of the Sabres' future. He's a pending restricted free agent this summer.

Mattias Samuelsson - Lights lamp in win Samuelsson scored a goal, added three hits and went plus-2 in Wednesday's 5-2 win over the Flyers.

Impact Samuelsson put the Sabres ahead 2-0 in the first period. The 25-year-old defenseman is having a career year, and he's not slowing down in January, earning four points over his last six games. For the season, he has eight goals -- more than he had in the first five years of his career combined -- as well as 15 assists, 63 shots on net, 68 hits, 92 blocked shots and a plus-19 rating through 43 appearances. While he's not on the power play, Samuelsson has done enough everywhere else to be a viable depth blueliner in fantasy.

Jack Quinn - Pots game-winner Wednesday Quinn scored a goal on two shots in Wednesday's 5-2 win over the Flyers.

Impact Quinn tallied at 4:22 of the second period to give the Sabres a 3-0 lead, and his goal was ultimately the game-winner. The 24-year-old forward has scored three times over his last three outings after being limited to one goal and eight assists over 19 outings between Nov. 28 and Jan. 8. Quinn is up to 10 goals, 25 points, 89 shots on net and an even plus-minus rating through 45 contests, giving him a chance at reaching the 40-point mark for the first time in his career.

Tage Thompson - Two PP helpers in Wednesday's win Thompson collected two power-play assists in Wednesday's 5-2 win over the Flyers.

Impact The 28-year-old center helped set up a pair of Rasmus Dahlin tallies, as Thompson extended his point streak to five games. Thompson hasn't gone back-to-back games without getting onto the scoresheet since early December, and over the last 17 contests he's racked up 10 goals and 22 points.

Ryan McLeod - Two-point effort against Philly McLeod produced a shorthanded goal and an assist in Wednesday's 5-2 win over the Flyers.

Impact The 26-year-old center helped set up Jack Quinn's game-winner early in the second period before sliding home an empty-netter late in the third. The shortie was McLeod's fourth of the season, a new career high, and he could be poised to move into a top-six role after Josh Norris (ribs) left Wednesday's win early.

Rasmus Dahlin - Lights lamp twice on power play Dahlin scored two power-play goals in Wednesday's 5-2 win over the Flyers.

Impact The star blueliner potted Buffalo's first and fourth goals of the night, both on lasers from the high slot. Dahlin doubled his power-play goal total on the season in the process, and through 41 games this season he's produced six goals and 32 points with 110 shots on net, 54 blocked shots, 39 PIM 32 hits and a minus-13 rating.

Ukko-Pekka Luukkonen - Nabs third straight win Luukkonen made 20 saves in Wednesday's 5-2 win over the Flyers.

Impact The 26-year-old netminder cruised to the win in a tight-checking contest, as the two teams combined for only 36 shots on net. Luukkonen has gotten into the win column in three straight starts and six of his last seven, posting a 2.15 GAA and .928 save percentage over that stretch as he reclaims the top spot in the Sabres crease.
