The Sabres are making a big lineup change for their matchup against the Canadiens.
The Buffalo Sabres are back on the ice Monday afternoon (Nov. 11) to play against the Montreal Canadiens. The Sabres will aim to stay hot after winning each of their last three games.
While the Sabres are hot right now, they are making a notable change to their lineup against the Habs. Mattias Samuelsson will be back in the lineup after being a healthy scratch for the last three games. Dennis Gilbert will be out of the lineup for Samuelsson.
Samuelsson is an important part of the Sabres' blueline, but he has had a rough start to the season. In 12 games, the 6-foot-4 defenseman has one goal, 23 hits, and a minus-3 rating.
It will be very interesting to see if he can have a big response game against Montreal from here.
