Weber, who has missed the past two games with a lower-body injury, may be out for the season, pending another update Monday afternoon and won't play that night. With a loss Monday night, the Sabres can lock up 30th place, which would hopefully help the team land prized prospect Connor McDavid. If that's the case, there won't be any rush to bring back Weber, who has been the Sabres' most physical defenseman this year. Tyson Strachan and Nikita Zadorov will continue to skate in place of Weber.

Weber (general soreness) didn't travel with the Sabres to Long Island for Saturday's game. Coach Ted Nolan suggested that Weber's injury could be season-ending, putting his status in doubt for the Sabres' remaining three games after Saturday.

Despite being diagnosed with an upper-body injury that would sideline him for at least two weeks, Weber was a full participant in practice Thursday, reports John Vogl of The Buffalo News. Weber was a surprise participant, and with head coach Ted Nolan electing to sit Nikita Zadorov as a healthy scratch, Weber will draw in against Vancouver on Thursday.
