HockeyBuzz.com - Bill Meltzer - Wrap: Flyers Shut out Sabres, 3-0 NHL Hockey Trade Rumors
Gets no help in loss Hutton made 36 saves in Saturday's 3-0 loss to the Flyers.
Impact Buffalo's offense couldn't solve Brian Elliott and the team's defense didn't do much to clean things up in its own end, leaving Hutton hanging out to dry. The veteran figured to be the Sabres' No. 1 netminder through most or all of March with Linus Ullmark (lower body) landing on IR, but Hutton's 3.40 GAA and .893 save percentage don't offer much fantasy upside even in a larger role.

Sabres G Ullmark to miss a month; Eichel out against Flyers Sabres starting goalie Linus Ullmark will miss at least the next month with a lower-body injury, leaving Buffalo with one established netminder
FEBRUARY 27 • ASSOCIATED PRESS
Will miss at least one month Ullmark has been placed on injured reserve and will be sidelined for at least a month with a lower-body issue, Heather Engel of NHL.com reports.
Impact With Ullmark set to miss at least a month, the Sabres may explore trading for a veteran netminder to serve as the backup to Carter Hutton, who will take over as Buffalo's No. 1 netminder for the foreseeable future. Another update on Ullmark's status should surface once he's able to resume on-ice activities.

Jumps to active roster Johansson was promoted to the active roster ahead of Saturday's game versus the Flyers, Heather Engel of NHL.com reports.
Impact Linus Ullmark (undisclosed) is expected to miss at least a month, so Johansson was called up to serve as Carter Hutton's backup. The Sabres play against the Flyers on Sunday as well, so it wouldn't be surprising if Johansson got the starting nod. The 25-year-old netminder has impressed in the AHL ranks, but he sports an .894 save percentage through seven NHL appearances.

Tending twine Saturday Hutton will guard the home goal in Saturday's game versus the Flyers, Heather Engel of NHL.com reports.
Impact Linus Ullmark (undisclosed) is expected to miss at least a month, so Hutton will be the de facto No. 1 goalie for the time being. The 35-year-old Hutton has struggled to start the year, providing an .889 save percentage and a 1-4-1 record through his first six appearances. He'll draw a tough opponent, as the Flyers are fifth in the league with 3.44 goals per game.

Back in action Saturday Ristolainen (not injury related) will play in Saturday's game versus the Flyers, Heather Engel of NHL.com reports.
Impact Ristolainen is back in action after missing the last seven games due to a stint in the NHL's COVID-19 protocol and the subsequent conditioning required afterward. The 26-year-old averaged 23:34 of ice time per game, recording six points through 10 contests, prior to his absence. He's expected to play in the top four once again.

Returning to action Skinner will return to the lineup for Saturday's game against Philadelphia, Heather Engel of NHL.com reports.
Impact Skinner will return to action after sitting as a healthy scratch for the Sabres' last two contests. He's expected to skate on Buffalo's fourth line and second power-play unit Saturday.
FEBRUARY 27 • ROTOWIRE
Sidelined with lower-body issue Eichel (lower body) won't play Saturday against Philadelphia, Heather Engel of NHL.com reports.
Impact Eichel's considered day-to-day with his lower-body injury, so although he won't be available Saturday, he could return for Sunday's rematch with the Flyers. Curtis Lazar is expected to skate on the Sabres' top line until Eichel is ready to return.

Impact Bryson has been in the lineup for the last two games with Buffalo, posting an impressive plus-3 rating despite not scoring a point. The 23-year-old blueliner could be recalled for Saturday's contest against the Flyers if Rasmus Ristolainen (not injury related) is unable to play.
