Norris Misses Practice, Being Evaluated For Unspecified Injury
The Buffalo Sabres practiced at Key Bank Center on Friday in preparation for taking on Jack Eichel and the Vegas Golden Knights on Saturday afternoon. The Sabres are coming off a 7-3 loss to the Red Wings in Detroit on Wednesday and did not have two of their top-line players on the ice.

Sabres Disastrous Defensively In Defeat To Detroit
Rosen Sent Down Again Without Getting An Opportunity
Head coach Lindy Ruff indicated that winger JJ Peterka is feeling better after missing the Detroit game with a lower-body injury. Peterka will miss Saturday’s game but will travel with the team as they leave for Boston for a St. Patrick’s Day tilt with the Bruins. The news was not as optimistic regarding newly acquired center Josh Norris.
Norris scored his first goal as a Sabre in Detroit but aggravated an injury he suffered before being acquired from Ottawa for Dylan Cozens last Friday.
“(Norris is) just being evaluated by our medical staff,” Ruff said. “It's something he's been dealing with, so we'll see where it's (at).”
The 25-year-old center played all 56 games of his rookie season in 2021 but has missed significant chunks of the last four seasons with a variety of injuries. Norris was out a month before returning and playing three games before the trade.
The Sabres recalled center Tyson Kozak from AHL Rochester, and Ruff said that an update on Norris will be forthcoming.
