Foligno (finger) could return to action as soon as this weekend. Foligno will not play Thursday night, but he took part in the Sabres' Thursday morning skate, which indicates he is nearly ready to resume playing. He was expected to miss 1-to-2 months after undergoing finger surgery in late December, and it looks like he will be able to return closer to the short end of that estimate.
