Buffalo Sabres defenseman Jake McCabe did not make the trip because of a right shoulder injury he sustained during a 3-2 overtime win against the Detroit Red Wings on Friday. The Sabres, who did not have a morning skate, recalled defenseman Casey Nelson from Rochester of the American Hockey League on Saturday. Coach Dan Bylsma had to shuffle his defense pairs on the fly against Detroit after losing McCabe, who played two more shifts after he was injured, but left before the end of the first period and did not return. Rasmus Ristolainen played a career-high 35:24, including all 4:34 of overtime, and Zach Bogosian played a season-high 29:51. "It's really a lot of mix and match there throughout the game, and I thought at times we gave our defensemen too much to handle there, in the second period in particular," Bylsma said. "... They had to play some tough defense against their skill forwards, and I thought those guys were up to the task, all five of them." Forward Kyle Okposo, who scored the winning goal with 26 seconds left in overtime Friday, has three points (two goals, one assist) in a three-game point streak and needs one point for his 400th in the NHL.
