Sabres vs. Blackhawks preview: Ennis returns for afternoon challenge
Kevin Hoffman-USA TODAY SportsGame #34
Puck Drop: 1:00 pm EST | First Niagara Center | Buffalo, NY
Three Questions
1. Can Ennis make an impact in his first game back?
Tyler Ennis will return to the Sabres lineup for the first time in 15 games, meaning Cal O'Reilly has been sent back down to Rochester. Ennis had struggled in the games prior to his injury. Can he turn his play around while playing with two of the Sabres' most talented forwards?
Johnson recorded his first shutout as a Sabre against Anaheim earlier in the week. He's earned the starting spot as of late until Robin Lehner returns to game action. Can he have another strong game this afternoon?
