On top of his solid season, Linus Ullmark has become a shootout dynamo

‘By stopping all three shots Saturday, Ullmark improved to 33 of 38 in his career, and his .868 save percentage took over first place all-time in the NHL for goalies with at least 10 shootouts.’

Sabres Notebook: Arttu Ruotsalainen gets the call, now waits for his chance

‘”We’re interested in seeing him at some point. We plan on that at some point,” Granato said. “He has earned it by his his work ethic, his commitment, all the intangibles. He’s done a nice job down there, consistently progressed.”‘

Travis Yost’s Sabre Metrics: Is there more to Rasmus Dahlin’s struggles than just playing on a bad team?

‘What might be a bit more concerning is that the Sabres – for the third season in a row – aren’t seeing a ton of offensive pop with Dahlin on the ice, particularly at 5-on-5. The Sabres score just about as efficiently with Dahlin deployed (2.37 goals per 60 minutes) as with him resting (2.30 goals per 60 minutes), and that’s with a lot of his minutes intermixed with stronger Sabres attackers.’

Sabres rookies Dylan Cozens, Will Borgen close to returning to practice

‘Meanwhile, Granato said Borgen, 24, could return to practice shortly after Cozens. Borgen has missed the last 23 contests recovering from a broken forearm.’

Sabres make roster moves, recall Arttu Ruotsalainen from Amerks

‘Before the North American seasons started, Ruotsalainen starred for Ilves, a Liiga team in his native Finland. He left Ilves in December having scored a league-high 16 goals.’

The human side of the Buffalo Sabres’ 18-game winless streak of 2021

‘He went to the hospital in October after feeling fatigued. “It was a combination of pneumonia and another bacteria in my blood,” he said. “And within hours, I couldn’t breathe anymore. I was just fighting for breath. I was just fighting for oxygen, just trying to catch air.”‘

Ruotsalainen gets the call from Rochester

‘This season is Ruotsalainen’s first in North America. He’s played 13 games with Rochester and has five goals and eight assists for 13 points.’

Only hundreds watched Sabres beat Rangers in person on Saturday

‘The number of people who were watching in person? Just 302.’

Ullmark’s return sparking Sabres four-game point streak

‘”I think he’s probably one of the best goalies in the world. He’s so patient. It’s really hard to kind of go around him,” Sabres forward Victor Olofsson said after Saturday’s shootout win. “It’s really hard to figure him out. We feel really confident with him in the penalty shots for sure.”‘
