Ukko-Pekka Luukkonen Dealing With a "Tweak"
The Buffalo Sabres goaltender Ukko-Pekka Luukkonen (undisclosed) is battling an injury ahead of training camp. Per Matthew Fairburn of The Athletic, Luukkonen is bothered by a "tweak." The injury seems minor, but the team is not taking any chances and signed Alexandar Georgiev for extra depth in goal. It was announced that Luukkonen's return timetable is unclear. Luukkonen's form declined last season, as he finished with a 24-24-5 record, a 3.20 goals-against average, a .887 save percentage, and two shutouts. Buffalo bolstered its goalie department by adding Alex Lyon during the summer, while highly-regarded prospect Devon Levi also remains an option to fill in for Luukkonen.
