Mittelstadt returned for three games but re-aggravated his upper-body injury on Sunday and will come out of the lineup on Tuesday. Tage Thompson is set to return to the lineup to replace Mittelstadt.

Thompson missed one game but is set to return to the Sabres lineup on Tuesday. Thompson will replace Casey Mittelstadt and comes into the lineup with 14 goals and 15 assists (29 points) in 40 games.


Fabbro missed six games with an upper-body injury but is set to play Tuesday vs. the Canucks. Fabbro re-enters the lineup with one goal and 10 assists (11 points) in 35 games this season.

Tolvanen missed three games while in COVID-19 protocol but is expected to play vs. the Canucks. Tolvanen, who has six goals and nine assists (15 points) in 42 games this season, should be back on the second line with Ryan Johansen and Luke Kunin.

Martinez was on the ice for Monday's practice but will not return to the lineup on Tuesday. The Golden Knights could have used him, with Zach Whitecloud out and Nic Hague as a game-time decision.

Hague was listed as day-to-day on Monday but has been upgraded to a game-time decision. The Golden Knights are already without Alec Martinez and Zach Whitecloud, so missing Hague as well would leave them very shorthanded on the blueline.

Felhaber was an undrafted free agent out of Ottawa (OHL), who has scored two goals in 14 games with Texas (AHL) this season. He will report to Syracuse (AHL).

Lipanov was a third-round pick of the Lightning in 2017, who has appeared in just one AHL and eight ECHL games this season. He will report to Texas (AHL).
