Larsson (upper-body) will not play on Saturday.

Larsson is day-to-day with an upper-body injury, so Rasmus Asplund was called up from Rochester and will replace him in the lineup vs. Ottawa. The Sabres have a back-to-back this weekend, so there’s a good chance that Larsson isn’t available tomorrow either.
