Injury Report: Sabres Injury Report 2021 (Eichel, Hutton, Ullmark, Okposo)

[1TuchAnd1NoTuch]

So our season is officially over

 

[MarkusKetterer]

Risto!!! Even if he doesn’t play much, I expect him being back on the ice will be a morale boost to this team for a shift or two.

 

[TheDawnOfANewTage]

Anyone know what happened with Ullmark? He stretched big on that one save, seemed hurt, then stayed in the game- wondering if it’s a groin that became a problem once he cooled down?

Either way- he’s been playing like a solid starter, his injuries kinda suck though. Two years in a row he gets hurt right when he’s really playing well (imo). Could be random chance, but obviously I’d feel better with a 1A/1B not involving the sieve that is Hutton.

Sabres' Jack Eichel out at least a week due to upper-body injury

Might as well add Cozens on here

Might as well add Cozens on here

Fans see: Clear concussion

Dr. Kruger : "We're trying to manage his minutes in this schedule, so he's going to have a couple maintenance days here, lets some bumps and bruises heal a bit. He's a great young kid, we're very pleased with how well he will endure."

Couldn't find anything definitive or authoritative on Cozens this a.m..

I certainly assume he's out with a "UBI". Everything I learned in diagnosing/protecting against head injuries says he's concussed. Someone said he was out on his feet making his way to the room.

Not the most reliable source saying 8 weeks

[Bobby Bottle Service]

They won't say Jack is out for the season and that is technically true. He *could* be ready for the 2nd round of the playoffs in 8 weeks.

um.. for LA or NYR?

Also, what a clusterf***- saw a rumor he mighta cracked a rib in a shooting drill before the season started. Who knows if it’s true- but I also just saw a team doc clearly do something Eich didn’t like on his neck so.. crazier shit happens.

 

[littletonhockeycoach]

Pretty much the entire board postulated some weeks ago that Eichel was playing with an injury.

At least we all can pretty much dispense with the trade prognostications.

Do we know if Jake had to get surgery or not?

Do we know if Jake had to get surgery or not?

I think there is two opinions. Some think yes and some no. All ongoing.

 

[5 Minute Major]

So, I take Ullmark is coming back or do the Sabres have someone else they are going to?

Me. No, not my namesake. I mean me, the actual poster.

2021 Fantasy Hockey Rankings, News and Draft Kit
Hutton (lower body) unknown
Okposo (upper body) unknown
Rieder (undisclosed) day-to-day
Miller (undisclosed) day-to-day

More information regarding Hutton's status should surface in the coming days, but for now, it's safe to assume he'll miss the final three games of the Sabres' current four-game road trip at a minimum
Okposo already missed Monday's game versus the Rangers, and it appears as though the veteran forward will miss at least three more contests.
Although Rieder's considered day-to-day, he isn't expected to play Wednesday versus Pittsburgh.
Miller's a little banged up, but that shouldn't keep him from playing against the Penguins
