'Buffalo has 23 healthy players, the NHL regular season limit. Right now the roster includes three injured players – left wing Eric Boulton (left hand), center Tim Connolly (concussion) and left wing Jochen Hecht (broken arm). Hecht is expected to miss 6-8 weeks. In addition to his injury, Connolly must serve a four-game NHL suspension at the start of the regular season, a carry-over from last season.'
