Robert Hagg has been listed as month to month with a lower-body injury on the Sabres' latest injury report, released Thursday morning.
Hagg attempted to play through the injury during the second period of Buffalo's victory in Winnipeg on Tuesday before missing the entirety of the third. The defenseman averages 17:45 of ice time - his highest mark since 2017-18 - and leads the Sabres in blocked shots (56) and hits (49).
The Sabres recalled 24-year-old defenseman Casey Fitzgerald, a right shot, to replace the left-shot Hagg on the NHL roster. Fitzgerald has seven points (4+3) in 21 games with Rochester this season.
