Defenseman Matt Hunwick not expected to play for Sabres this season

‘With Hunwick possibly out for the season, the Sabres are expected to have five left-shot defensemen competing for a roster spot in training camp: Rasmus Dahlin, Jake McCabe, Marco Scandella, John Gilmour and Lawrence Pilut, who is expected to miss the start of the season after undergoing shoulder surgery this offseason.’

Neck injury will sideline Sabres’ Matt Hunwick entire season

‘Hunwick likely would’ve filled a depth role again this season.’

Sabres defenseman Matt Hunwick expected to miss season

‘The Sabres are expected to place Hunwick on the long-term injured list, which will allow the team to free up space under the salary cap. Buffalo was projected to be about $1 million over the $81.5 million salary cap after re-signing defenseman Jake McCabe and goalie Linus Ullmark earlier this month.’

Sabres defenseman Matt Hunwick likely out for season with neck condition

‘In the 2018 offseason, the Sabres acquired Hunwick, along with Conor Sheary, from the Penguins in exchange for a conditional 2019 pick. The veteran blueliner then suffered an undisclosed neck injury during his off-ice training prior to the start of the 2018-19 campaign. He was out indefinitely to start the year, but his recovery was fast-tracked and he returned in mid-December. However, he struggled with multiple ailments over the year, including a lower-body injury and an undisclosed upper-body injury.’

Sabres Hunwick to miss the entire season with an injury

‘Buffalo now has eight defensemen in Rasmus Ristolainen, Rasmus Dahlin, Jake McCabe, Colin Miller, Brandon Montour, Henri Jokiharju, Marco Scandella and Casey Nelson. Lawrence Pilut and Zach Bogosian will start the season on injured reserve.’

Defenseman Matt Hunwick expected to miss entire 2019-2020 season

‘Hunwick played in 14 games for the Sabres last season. He recorded two assists and a plus-minus of -7. His contract with Buffalo expires at the end of the season.’
