Jason Zucker Set to Return From 11-Game Absence
Buffalo Sabres left wing Jason Zucker (lower body) is expected to make his return from an 11-game absence on Tuesday against the Vancouver Canucks. The veteran has been out of commission for nearly a month due to a lower-body injury. At Monday's practice, Zucker joined Josh Norris and Alex Tuch on the second line and worked with the first power-play unit. Zucker has averaged nearly a point per game this season. In 21 outings, he has produced nine goals and nine assists. Half of his 18 points have come with the man advantage. On Tuesday night, Zucker is in a great position to find more success on the power-play, as Vancouver has the third-worst penalty-killing efficiency in the league (73.9 percent).
