Ruhwedel has been called up from AHL Rochester in light of Andre Benoit's lower-body injury, reports WGR 550. This will be Ruhwedel's second stint with the Sabres after scoring 34 points in 69 games with AHL Rochester. The dependable two-way defenseman filled in seamlessly in his two previous games with the big club, scoring an assist and finishing with a plus-2 rating. Benoit will not play Friday and is doubtful for Saturday.
