Foligno will re-unite with Johan Larsson and Brian Gionta to form the Sabres' third line, the Olean Times Herald reports.
EDGE Analysis
Foligno's lack of consistency from game to game has been maddening since becoming a full-time regular in 2012, but the 24-year-old has also managed to improve his point totals every year. Head coach Dan Bylsma found magic when he put Foligno together with Larsson at center and Gionta on the other wing, and the trio used their speed and tenacious forecheck to cause havoc. The Sabres still have a few lineup decisions to make, but the third line is already set. Foligno, who scored a career-high 10 goals last year, is an intriguing fantasy option in leagues that count hits and PIM. He's primed for a breakout season, but his offensive ceiling isn't very high and 20 goals would be a commendable feat.
