‘Not being in the lineup right now isn’t an issue for Bryson, He is returning to the ice after a four-game absence, in part because he was in concussion protocol after he took a hit from Florida’s Jonah Gadjovich in Buffalo’s 3-0 win Oct. 18. Bryson returned to practice six days later, then participated in the morning skate Oct. 24 prior to a 5-3 win over Toronto, but remains among the Sabres’ reserves on defense.’
