Sabres injuries: D Rasmus Dahlin set to return, F Jordan Greenway to have surgery

BUFFALO, N.Y. (WIVB) — Sabres captain Rasmus Dahlin is projected to return to the lineup Friday night after missing the past seven games with back spasms, coach Lindy Ruff said after the All-Star defenseman was a full participant in Thursday's practice.

Forward Jordan Greenway will remain out for an extended period following surgery to address his mid-body injury, Ruff said. There is hope Greenway can return before the end of the season. The veteran winger brought a physical presence to Buffalo's lineup and had a plus-3 rating in 16 games prior to his injury. After sitting out 10 games, Greenway had a minus-4 rating in four games played since.

The Sabres bring an 11-game winless streak into Friday night's game against the Toronto Maple Leafs at KeyBank Center.
