Skinner Making Progress Towards Return as Levi Prepares for Next Opportunity with Buffalo Sabres
Buffalo Sabres forward Jeff Skinner has returned to practice after recovering from an upper-body injury. Coach Don Granato has announced that Skinner could potentially play in the upcoming game against the Anaheim Ducks. Skinner has missed the last five games due to his injury but has now returned to his usual position alongside Tage Thompson and Alex Tuch. During Monday’s practice at LECOM Harborcenter, Skinner also participated in the top power-play unit. Granato expressed optimism about Skinner’s progress, stating that he went through practice with full intensity. Granato expects Skinner to return to the lineup very soon, possibly as early as the next game.
