Krebs - Thompson - Greenway
Doan - McLeod - Tuch
Rosén - Östlund - Quinn
Malenstyn - Dunne - Geersten

Krebs got a look in preseason with Norris-TNT, so I'd presume he goes up the lineup. But Rosén or Östlund on TNT's line wouldn't surprise me to try to better balance out the AHLers.

I don't exactly hate that.  But why do we even have Geersten?

I'd suggest suggesting more realistic suggestions.  This is, after all, the internet.

Because much as Granato loved him some Jokiharju, Ruff loves him some Geersten.

That was a weird way of talking about Kulich. I mean if he's sick, like Zucker, wouldn't they just say they are both ill? Why is Zucker ill but Kulich is dealing with something not physical and not an injury? wtf does that mean? Hurt feelings? 

Teams are getting weirder and weirder about injuries and players out of the line up.

Kulich could have an inner ear condition called labyrinthitis, the symptoms include dizziness to the point where the room feels like it is spinning, nausea and vomiting. 
 

It’s usually caused by virus but can also be a bacterial infection.

It's literally being discussed exactly what that is, Ruff told us, in this thread.

Where did Ruff say what @Brawndo said? He was less than specific in his words. 

An ear thing is a physical thing. It is caused by an illness. Why not just say that right away?

Cuz his first game back someone is gonna wet willie his ear hole and re-not injure him.

Do I gotta lay everything out for everyone?

He could say "lingering effects of a prior illness".

Sabres must have the same strength and condition coach as the Bills. 

[Big Guava]

Kulich has a UTI?

I tried warning Yall with their wack ass “day to day” “week to week” designations. It’s oddly vague and Canadian. Just tell us how long you think it’s gonna be.  If the medical staff can’t tell if an injury is going to take one week or three weeks to recover from, maybe they aren’t good at their jobs.

well that frees up 1 slot. Must really be sick if they are going to go at least a week without him.

 

Could they "send" Kulich down to Rochester to free up another slot, or has he played too many NHL games now? I think it's 160, and he's only at 75..so I'd assume they could do a paper transaction to swap a guy?

Technically he is waivers exempt but the injury status may play into that somehow.
