Cozens (upper-body) is questionable to play Wednesday.

Cozens left Monday's game vs. the Flyers with an upper-body injury and did not return. The Sabres did not provide much of an update on Cozens' status but said they didn't believe that it was season-ending. The fact that they even mentioned that, suggests that Cozens is going to miss some time, so don't expect to see him Wednesday.

The Senators acquired Mike Amadio from the Kings for Christian Wolanin.

Amadio had a career-high 16 points (6G / 10A) in 58 games a season ago but was held without a goal and just two assists in his first 20 games of 2021. In Ottawa, he will likely fill Artem Anisimov's fourth-line/reserve role after Anisimov was placed on waivers.

The Sabres have activated Linus Ullmark (lower-body) from IR.

Ullmark has been out since February 25th but appears set to start Saturday vs. the Bruins. Ullmark was steady early in the season, going 5-4-2 with a 2.44 GAA and .919 SV% but the wheels have completely fallen off in his absence.

"Pretty good chance" that Chabot will play on Tuesday.

Chabot has missed the last two games with an upper-body injury but should play Tuesday vs. Montreal. Chabot was on the ice for the Senators' morning skate and while he's officially considered a game-time decision, head coach DJ Smith said that there's a "pretty good chance" that he's back in. Chabot, who has three goals and six assists (nine points) in 17 games, would be replaced by Braydon Coburn if he can't go.
