Tuch participated in practice as an extra skater on Monday and is likely to return before the end of their upcoming three-game road trip that beings on Wednesday. Tuch last played on December 3rd and had six points (3G / 3A) in his last six games. Assuming he does not play on Monday against the Arizona Coyotes, his next opportunity to return will be Wednesday against the Colorado Avalanche.

Tuch is expected to miss seven to 10 days with an undisclosed injury. Tuch's absence from the lineup will be a sizeable blow for a Sabres team that already struggles to score goals (2.84 GF / GP) but, luckily for the Sabres, Tage Thompson (upper-body) will return from a multi-week injury just as Tuch exits the lineup.
Tuch exited Sunday's game against the Nashville Predators after playing 16:19 time-on-ice with an undisclosed injury. A more detailed update should be provided for Tuch on Monday. The Sabres, already without Tage Thompson, Jack Quinn, and Jordan Greenway, can ill afford to lose Tuch, who has six points (3G / 3A) in his last six games.
Tuch has not played the last two games for the Sabres but will be available to return to the lineup on Friday against the Winnipeg Jets. Before his injury, Tuch had been producing at an impressive rate, recording nine points (4G / 5A) in his last seven games.

Tuch has been nursing an injury for the last couple of weeks but taking advantage of maintenance days has prevented him from missing any game action, yet he is still considered day-to-day. His status for Friday's game against the Minnesota Wild is yet to be determined but if he cannot go Mathew Savoie is expected to make his NHL debut. Tuch has been producing at an impressive rate lately, recording nine points (4G / 5A) in his last seven games.
Tuch will play on Friday after not participating in practice on Thursday. In 10 games, Tuch has seven points (1G / 6A) while averaging 18:06 time-on-ice, over a full minute less than his average ice time during the 2022-23 season.
Tuch did not participate in the Sabres' skate Thursday after missing practice due to maintenance and is a game-time decision Friday vs. Philadelphia after Lukas Rousek was recalled from Rochester (AHL). The 27-year-old right-winger has a goal, six assists, 20 SOG, 18 PIMs and a +1 plus/minus through 10 games this season.
Tuch has missed the Sabres' previous eight games due to a lower-body injury and will play Monday vs. Toronto. The 26-year-old has 28 goals, 34 assists, 164 SOG, and a +12 plus/minus through 62 games with the Sabres this season.

Tuch crashed into the post on Sunday and did not return to the game. Head coach Don Granato said that the testing at the arena was "as positive as it can be." He was sent for further imaging and is questionable to play Monday against the Panthers.
The Sabres placed three more players in COVID-19 protocol, bringing their total to five players ahead of their game Thursday vs. the Sharks. With Tuch out, the Sabres are expected to reunite Jeff Skinner, Tage Thompson and Victor Olofsson.
Tuch was scheduled to make his Sabres debut before the Christmas break but the games were postponed, so it had to wait until tonight. Tuch will start his Sabres career on the top line with Tage Thompson and JJ Peterka and will also serve as the net-front presence on the top power-play unit.
