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.
Mittelstadt will play for the first time since December 7th and is expected to centre the second line with Peyton Krebs and Anders Bjork. Mittelstadt has scored one goal on seven shots in four games this season.
The Sabres do not have a timetable on Mittelstadt but believe he could be back before the end of the season. Mittelstadt has played just four games this season.
Mittelstadt will see a specialist on Friday to determine the severity of his upper-body injury. Expect the Sabres to provide a detailed timeline within the next 24 hours.
Mittelstadt has been out since suffering an upper-body injury in the Sabres' season opener. On Wednesday, he skated on the third line with Zemgus Girgensons and Rasmus Asplund but should be back on the top power-play unit in his first game back.
Mittelstadt played 9:07 TOI before leaving the season opener with an upper-body injury. The Sabres announced today that he'll miss at least a couple of weeks, which leaves a huge hole down the middle. In Friday's practice, Dylan Cozens was elevated to the top line and Arttu Ruotsalainen is expected to draw into the lineup.
Mittelstadt will suit up for his second game of the season, playing on the first line with Jack Eichel and Victor Olofsson. Mittelstadt had one assist in 10:02 TOI in his first game of the season.
Mittelstadt has yet to live up to the billing of being selected No.8 overall in 2017 and that led to him being demoted to the AHL in 2020. He had nine points (4G / 5A) in 31 games with the Sabres before being sent to Rochester, where he tallied 25 points (9G / 16A) in 36 games. Mittelstadt is expected to get a spot in the Sabres' bottom-6 to start the 2021 season but has a lot to prove if he's going to get a raise next summer.
Mittelstadt will miss his second straight game but skated the last two days, which suggests that he won’t be out long. Evan Rodrigues will remain on the Sabres second line.
