Bogosian will be evaluated later today, but head coach Phil Housley called him day-to-day for now. Bogosian has had terrible luck with injuries during his career, so this comes as no surprise. Bogosian could miss the start of the season, which starts next Thursday.
Zach Bogosian News
Bogosian was tangled up in practice on Wednesday and it is believed that he suffered an ankle injury that will cost him at least one month. Brendan Guhle was recalled earlier this week and now it looks like he’ll be here to stay while Bogosian is on the shelf.
Bogosian got tangled up with Evander Kane in Wednesday’s practice and had to be helped off of the ice, unable to put any pressure on his left leg. Bogosian has had a tough time with injuries during his career and it looks like he could miss more time this year.
Bogosian has had injury problems throughout his career, missing 90 of the last 271 games dating back to 2014-15. Bogosian will jump onto the Sabres’ second pair with Nathan Beaulieu—he had just two goals and nine assists (11 points) in 56 games with the Sabres last year.
Bogosian has yet to play this season and was originally listed as a game-time decision for tonight’s game but head coach Phil Housely crushed that idea after the Sabres morning skate. The Sabres’ blueline has taken some lumps early this year so Bogosian’s return will be a big boon to their back-end.
Bogosian has had a terrible time with injuries during his career, missing a combined 64 games over the last three seasons. With Bogosian out, Matt Tennyson will be on the blueline, paired with Marco Scandella.
Bogosian played just 5:33 TOI before leaving Thursday’s game with a rib issue. Bogosian will miss some time because of the injury, but luckily for the Sabres both Jake McCabe and Josh Gorges are set to return to the lineup on Saturday.
Bogosian left Tuesday’s game in Minnesota and is week-to-week with a sprained MCL. Bogosian has not recorded a point in nine games and he is no stranger to injury. He will be replaced by Casey Nelson on Thursday.
Bogosian suffered a lower-body injury in the Sabres loss to the Blue Jackets on Friday. Bogosian is expected to be replaced by Casey Nelson.
Bogosian will make his season debut tonight. Not the best matchup for a defenseman who missed the start of the season with a lower-body injury. The 25-year-old played an obscenely high 26:34 TOI with 2:32 coming on the power-play after being acquired by the Sabres last season. Bogosian had seven assists in 21 games with Buffalo and 20 points (3G / 10A) in 62 games overall. He is mobile for a big blueliner who possesses a heavy shot—30 points is not out of the realm of possibility.
Bogosian is expected to play this week and it could be as soon as Tuesday. Bogosian has yet to play this season because of a lower-body injury but has been practicing and is definitely close to play. The 25-year-old had seven assists while averaging 26:34 in 21 games with the Sabres last season.
Bogosian has missed the first 16 games of the season with a lower-body injury but returned to practice on Friday. Bogosian’s return suggests that Bogosian is nearing a return to the lineup. The Sabres are 8-8-0 so far this season, so getting Bogosian back could push them over the .500 hump.
Bogosian has missed the first three games of the season but returned to the ice on Wednesday which is a big step in his return to the lineup. Bogosian was listed as week-to-week and he remains without a firm timetable for return.
Bogosian has had an incredibly difficult time staying healthy throughout his career. He missed 20 games last season and a combined 96 games over the last three seasons. He played massive minutes (26:34 TOI/GM) with the Sabres last year and is expected to be leaned o heavily this year. His absence means the Sabres will lead to increased roles for the likes of Rasmus Ristolainen and Cody Franson.
Bogosian missed the last six games, but will be back in the lineup tonight vs. Arizona. Since being traded to the Sabres, Bogosian has collected four assists in 12 games while playing 26:35 TOI per game.
Bogosian has missed the last six games but is progressing well. However, he remains a question mark for Thursday’s game.
Bogosian will miss a second straight game. He is listed as day-to-day, but it sounds like he will be out for a few days. He is questionable for Tuesday’s game.
