Nieto has been filling in for Rudolfs Balcers on the Sharks' second line but both are questionable to play on Saturday. Antti Suomela will make his season debut regardless of whether or not Nieto plays, so someone will have to come out if he's in.
Nieto was on the ice for Tuesday's practice in a non-contact sweater and is expected to miss tonight's game vs. the Sabres. With Nieto out, Mark Barberio is expected to skate at forward on Wednesday.

The former second-round pick, who was a huge offensive producer at Boston University, has not been able to find the same success in the NHL. Regardless of his lack of offence, Nieto is a great skater with a strong two-way game and has found a home on a bottom-6 line with Carl Soderberg.
Nieto is a question mark for the Avalanche on Saturday because of an illness. The Avalanche are already scheduled to go with 11 forwards and seven defensemen, so it’s unclear who would take Nieto’s spot if he were to be unavailable.
