In the early parts of training camp, it is clear that Josh Norris is expected to have a big role for the Buffalo Sabres this season. He came to Buffalo during the season last year as part of the Dylan Cozens trade with Ottawa, but his season was cut short due to injury, and he only played in three games.
The decision to shut Norris down looks to be a good one, as he is entering training camp healthy after a full offseason and has been on the top line with Tage Thompson and Zach Benson.
