Status report
Lafferty left in the second period of a 4-1 loss in Minnesota on Saturday. Sabres coach Lindy Ruff said there is a “good chance” he’ll be out against the Jets due to a groin injury. … Quinn is expected to return after he was a late scratch for disciplinary measures on Saturday because he missed a team meeting Saturday morning. … Reimer is expected to start after Luukkonen made 17 saves on Saturday. … Pionk did not practice Saturday and remains week-to-week with a lower-body injury. … Schenn did not practice Saturday but is expected to be in the lineup on Sunday. Winnipeg coach Scott Arniel told Schenn to go home to Nashville to spend time with family following a 4-3 overtime win in Edmonton on Thursday.
