Seguin is going to “miss some time” with a lower-body injury.

Seguin left Friday’s game with a lower-body injury with just seven minutes left in the game. He was hit around the knees by Panthers defenseman Dmitry Kulikov and had to be helped off of the ice. Seguin will be re-evaluated on Saturday and the Stars should release more information after that.

The Sabres have traded Tyler Myers, Drew Stafford, Joel Armia, Brendan Lemieux and a 1st round pick to the Jets for Evander Kane, Zach Bogosian and Jason Kasdorf.

Myers, 25, was the 12th overall pick in the 2008 draft. He has seemingly regressed at the same rate as his team in each of his first five and a half seasons in the NHL. He was asked to do a lot on a bad team and the move to Winnipeg should definitely help him. He is in the third year of a seven year deal and his fantasy value is now much higher than it was when he woke up this morning. This is a defenseman who had 48 points (11G / 37A) in his rookie season.

Seguin (flu) will be a game-time decision on Tuesday.

Seguin was sent back to the team hotel this morning and did not take part in the Stars morning skate. He is battling the flu and could miss tonight’s game. However, given it is in Boston against his former team, Seguin will likely do anything he can to be in the lineup tonight. Seguin has two assists in three career games vs. Boston.

Seguin (illness) took part in the Stars morning skate; should play Tuesday.

Seguin was sent home from practice with an illness on Monday, but was on the ice this morning, which is a good sign that he will play tonight vs. the Senators. Seguin has one goal and four assists in his last six games.

Benn (undisclosed) is listed as questionable for Tuesday’s game vs. Ottawa.

There is no word on the nature or severity of Benn’s injury, but he was not on the ice for practice on Monday. Monitor his status during Tuesday’s morning skate. Benn has two goals and four assists in his last six games.

Myers (lower-body) will return to the Sabres lineup on Tuesday.

Myers has missed the last seven games with a lower-body injury but will get back into the lineup on Tuesday vs. New Jersey. "He's an anchor back there,” head coach Ted Nolan said after practice today. This is a big boost for the Sabres blue line—he will be paired with Josh Gorges.

Myers (undisclosed) is expected to return to the Sabres lineup on Friday.

Myers missed Wednesday’s game with an undisclosed injury, but it looks like he will be back on the blue line tonight vs. the Habs. He was paired with Tyson Strachan in the morning skate which suggests he will play. He has five points (1G / 4A) in 21 games.
