Sabres' Noah Ostlund: Slated to remain sidelined
Ostlund (upper body) is not expected be available for Tuesday's home matchup versus the Islanders, according to Justin Alpert of the Sabres' official site.
Ostlund is poised to miss his third consecutive game Tuesday. His next chance to suit up will be in Ottawa on Thursday, but he could be a healthy scratch once he moves past his upper-body injury.

Sabres' Ukko-Pekka Luukkonen: Expected to start at home
Luukkonen is slated to guard the home cage Tuesday versus the Islanders, Mike Harrington of The Buffalo News reports.
Luukkonen has been excellent since the Olympic break, registering a 7-1-1 record, .925 save percentage and 2.21 GAA across nine outings. The Sabres should have the upper hand Tuesday -- they have been off since Saturday, while the Islanders are on the second half of a back-to-back after getting blitzed by the Penguins on Monday to the tune of an 8-3 score.

Sabres' Zach Metsa: Heads back to NHL
Metsa was recalled from AHL Rochester on Monday.
Metsa will return to the Sabres just four days after being loaned back to the AHL. During that time, he played a trio of games with Rochester and will return to Buffalo in time for Tuesday's home clash with the Islanders. Across 38 games with the Sabres this season, the 27-year-old bluliner has six points, 22 shots on net and 28 blocked shots. Metsa will likely serve as a depth defenseman during the Sabres' push toward securing their first playoff appearance since the 2010-11 season.

Sabres' Jordan Greenway: Available for Tuesday
Greenway (abdomen) is an option for Tuesday's matchup with the Islanders, Mike Harrington of The Buffalo News reports.
Greenway hasn't played since Jan. 22 against the Canadiens, a stretch of 24 games on injured reserve due to his abdominal injury. Prior to getting hurt, the winger was mired in a 26-game goal drought during which he generated just 19 shots. As such, fantasy managers probably shouldn't be expecting an offensive explosion from Greenway.

Sabres' Peyton Krebs: Nets equalizer Saturday
Krebs scored a goal on three shots and added three hits in Saturday's 3-2 shootout win over the Kraken.
Krebs ended a month-long goal drought that saw him limited to six assists over 14 contests. The 25-year-old has proven a versatile option for the Sabres, frequently shuffling around the lineup to create new combinations to keep the offense fresh. Krebs has matched his career high in goals (10) and has a personal-best 35 points with 81 shots on net, 173 hits, 76 PIM and a plus-8 rating over 74 appearances this season.

Sabres' Ukko-Pekka Luukkonen: Earns win Saturday
Luukkonen stopped 32 of 34 shots in Saturday's 3-2 shootout win over the Kraken.
Luukkonen was beaten once in the first period and once more in the second, but he was excellent the rest of the way and also stopped two shots during the shootout to earn the win. The 27-year-old goaltender managed to bounce back from the overtime loss against the Bruins on Tuesday, and he's won six of his last nine outings. He continues to operate on a timeshare with Alex Lyon, and if that continues, Luukkonen could return to the crease in Thursday's road matchup against the Senators.

Sabres' Rasmus Dahlin: Scores power-play goal Saturday
Dahlin scored a power-play goal in Saturday's 3-2 shootout win over the Kraken.
Dahlin has found the back of the net in back-to-back games for the second time in his last six appearances. He's up to four goals, three assists, 10 PIM, 15 shots, five hits and two blocked shots over his last six games, establishing himself as a strong fantasy contributor in multiple categories. He's also up to 17 goals on the season, good for seventh among defensemen in the league.

Sabres' Riley Fiddler-Schultz: Three points in AHL loss
Fiddler-Schultz scored a goal and added two assists in AHL Rochester's 5-3 loss to Syracuse on Saturday.
Fiddler-Schultz has three goals and three assists over his last six games. For the season, he's up to 36 points over 61 appearances. He's shown a little growth after putting up 26 points in 51 regular-season outings a year ago, but the Sabres' strong performance in 2025-26 hasn't afforded him a chance to get to the NHL yet.

Sabres' Ukko-Pekka Luukkonen: Slated to face Seattle
Luukkonen is expected to start at home against Seattle on Saturday, per Heather Engel of NHL.com.
Luukkonen stopped 27 of 31 shots in a 4-3 overtime loss to Boston in his last start Wednesday. He has a 17-8-3 record, 2.60 GAA and .908 save percentage in 29 outings with Buffalo in 2025-26. Seattle is 3-7-1 while averaging 3.00 goals per game across its past 11 matches.

Sabres' Noah Ostlund: Not expected to play
Ostlund (upper body) isn't expected to play against Seattle on Saturday, per Rachel Lenzi of The Buffalo News.
Ostlund still needs additional time to recover from an injury he sustained in Wednesday's 4-3 overtime loss to Boston. He will miss his second straight game, and it's unclear when he will be ready to return to the lineup. Ostlund has 11 goals, 27 points, 60 shots on net and 30 blocked shots in 60 NHL appearances this season.

Sabres' Peyton Krebs: Garners assist Friday
Krebs recorded an assist and four hits in Friday's 5-2 loss to the Red Wings.
Krebs hasn't scored in March, and his goal drought is up to 14 games since he tallied Feb. 27 against the Panthers. He has six helpers during the slump, and he's also back on the top line at even strength, which gives him a little more scoring potential than he had earlier in the month in a bottom-six capacity. Krebs is at nine goals, 34 points, 78 shots on net, 170 hits, 76 PIM, 37 blocked shots and a plus-7 rating over 73 appearances in what's been a career year for him.

Sabres' Conor Timmins: Notches assist Friday
Timmins recorded an assist and blocked two shots in Friday's 5-2 loss to the Red Wings.
This was Timmins' second game back from a broken leg. The 27-year-old has retaken a third-pairing role for now, but there's no guarantee he'll stay in the lineup over Michael Kesselring or Luke Schenn on a regular basis for the rest of the season. Timmins has seven helpers, 36 shots on net, 74 blocked shots, 28 hits, 16 PIM and a minus-10 rating through 35 appearances on the year.

Sabres' Tanner Pearson: Logs helper in return
Pearson notched an assist in Friday's 5-2 loss to the Red Wings.
Pearson had been out of the lineup for six straight games, though he was considered a healthy scratch Wednesday versus the Bruins. The 33-year-old saw just 5:43 of ice time on the fourth line, but he was able to earn his first point as a Sabre in his second game since he was traded from the Jets. Overall, he has 14 points, 52 shots on net, 69 hits, 27 PIM, 26 blocked shots and a plus-9 rating over 54 appearances this season.

Sabres' Rasmus Dahlin: Pots goal in loss
Dahlin scored a goal on two shots and added four PIM in Friday's 5-2 loss to the Red Wings.
Dahlin has three goals and three assists, as well as a plus-3 rating, over his last five games. The defenseman got the Sabres back within two goals late in the third period, but a comeback effort didn't materialize. Dahlin is up to 16 goals, 66 points, 176 shots on net, 75 blocked shots, 70 PIM, 63 hits and a plus-12 rating over 69 appearances in his usual top-pairing role this season.

Sabres' Tage Thompson: Earns 400th career point
Thompson scored a goal on four shots and added four PIM in Friday's 5-2 loss to the Red Wings.
Thompson's goal was the 400th point of his career, coming in his 521st game. He got the Sabres on the board at 5:35 of the second period. For the season, the 28-year-old center is up to 37 goals, 75 points, 246 shots on net, 75 hits, 44 blocked shots, 33 PIM and a minus-5 rating over 73 appearances. Thompson has finished above a point-per-game pace just once in his career, which was in his best year with 47 goals and 94 points over 78 outings in 2022-23.

Sabres' Alex Lyon: Struggles against Red Wings
Lyon stopped 15 of 19 shots in Friday's 5-2 loss to the Red Wings. The fifth goal was an empty-netter.
Lyon took his second straight defeat, and he's allowed 10 goals on 52 shots over those games. He won six outings in a row before that, so this may be a bit of regression, but the Sabres can't afford to have him slumping while they battle for the top of the Atlantic Division. Lyon is down to 20-9-4 with a 2.69 GAA and a .909 save percentage over 35 appearances this season. Look for Ukko-Pekka Luukkonen to get the nod Saturday versus the Kraken, but Lyon would be in line to start Tuesday against the Islanders if the Sabres continue to alternate goalie starts.
