Julien on Seguin: "He's in the lineup tonight... He missed a game, he's paid his dues... Page turned and we've moved on" ^BB

Seguin was scratched for disciplinary reasons but expect him to get right back into the lineup. The sophomore has 13 goals and 25 points in 25 games but 11 of those points came in a six-game scoring binge.

Young Avalanche forwards Matt Duchene and Gabriel Landeskog missed practice Sunday but both are expected to play in Monday's game against the Dallas Stars at the Pepsi Center.

Sounds like Duchy is nursing a minor illness and should be fine for tomorrow's game. He currently leads the team in goals with nine and points with 17. Start him with confidence tomorrow.

#Sabres First three defense tandems during practice drill were last night's. A sign Tyler Myers is out again?

Myers was a 'surprise' scratch for last night's game. He registered only four assists over 16 games on the season, struggling at both ends of the ice. Stay tuned for a further word on his role.

If you own Myers, feel free to start him with confidence as he should play on the top PP unit. So far he has four assists over his first 14 games with the team.

Tyler Myers has been pretty quiet so far. The Sabres' big defenseman has no goals and two assists in nine games, not the numbers of an offensive catalyst.

While offseason acquisitions Christian Ehrhoff and Robyn Regehr vastly improved the Sabres blue line, it adversely affected Myers' offensive production. Expect the 6'8" Texas native to come closer to 40 points than 50 when the season is over.

The Avalanche's young center, demoted to the fourth line for Saturday's game against Chicago, skated with new linemates at practice this morning — Chuck Kobasew and Joakim Lindstrom.

Through his first eight games, the former second overall pick scored a goal and four points. Look for him to bounce back from his demotion.

Tyler Seguin took a slash on the right leg from the Sharks’ Benn Ferriero just before the Bruins’ pulled goalie Tim Thomas tonight and he did not return to the game, but he said he was OK after the game.

Sounds like Seguin will be OK and won't miss any playing time. Through seven games this season he has two goals and eight points. Expect a further update on how the Bruins will handle this injury.

Look for Seguin to slide into David's spot at center.

Moving up to the top line is certainly a boon to his fantasy hockey value. Through the team's first three games, the dynamic forward has three assists. He has a chance at sticking on the top line should he develop chemistry with Milan Lucic and Nathan Horton.
