The Sabres have signed Marcus Foligno to a two-year, $3.75 million deal.
Foligno signs a very cap-managable contract to stay in Buffalo a year after scoring seven goals with 12 assists (19 points) in 74 games last year. The 22-year-old has all the tools to be a good NHL player and the additions the Sabres made yesterday should help Foligno continue to grow.
Foligno (knee) will return to the Sabres lineup on Tuesday.
Originally, Foligno's knee injury was believed to be a structural injury, but turned out to be more of a bone bruise. He missed the last two games, but will be in the lineup vs. the Wings tomorrow. He has seven goals and 10 assists (17 points) in 70 games.
Foligno will likely miss the final six games of the season after his right leg buckled early in Thursday’s 2-1 loss to the St. Louis Blues.
Foligno got tangled with St. Louis’ Roman Polak 1:58 into the game, causing his leg to bend awkwardly as he fell – but Sabres coach Ted Nolan said it wasn’t as bad as it appeared. “But he’s going to be out probably the rest of the year,” he told reporters in St. Louis.With winger Drew Stafford likely out again tonight in Detroit, the Sabres will need to recall someone from Rochester, Nolan said.
Foligno is "banged up" and won't play tonight vs. the Maple Leafs.
There was no word on what is ailing Foligno, but he is listed as day-to-day. Drew Stafford will replace Foligno in the lineup after missing the last six games.
Foligno (upper body) returns to the Sabres lineup tonight.
Foligno will make his season debut on the Sabres second line with Tyler Ennis and Drew Stafford. The trio played together for much of last season; when Foligno had five goals and 13 assists in 47 games.
Marcus Foligno, who has yet to play because of shoulder injury, is participating fully in practice.
Foligno had five goals and 13 assists in 47 games last season. He has a chance to make his season debut tomorrow vs. Tampa Bay.
Buffalo Sabres coach Ron Rolston said today that Marcus Foligno will not play in the team's season opener against Detroit.
Foligno sustained an upper-body strain in a preseason game on Sept. 22 against Toronto and has not participated in a full practice since. He's worked with the team's power play units the last few days before the rest of the team has taken the ice but has done so while sporting a red non-contact jersey. He may miss the games over the weekend against Ottawa on Friday and in Pittsburgh on Saturday as well.
#Sabres head coach Ron Rolston with an injury update on Foligno, says it's not looking good now for him to play Wednesday. It appears Foligno may start the season on IR.
Drew Stafford will take Foligno's spot on the Sabres top-line.
