Weber (undisclosed) is considered healthy enough to play Tuesday against the Flames, Amy Moritz of the Buffalo News reports. Weber missed the Sabres' final two games prior to the All-Star break due to the ailment, but appears to be good to go after the extended time off. The blueliner was a full participant in Monday's practice and figures to draw back into the lineup Tuesday, barring any late setbacks in his recovery during the Sabres' gameday skate.

Weber (undisclosed) will not play Saturday against the Flyers. Weber wasn't on the ice for Friday's practice or for the Sabres' morning skate Saturday, as it appears he may have suffered an injury of some sort during Thursday's 7-0 loss to the Wild. With the blueliner unavailable, Andre Benoit will step into his lineup spot on the Sabres' third pairing.

Weber potted his first goal of the season -- and the Sabres' only score of the game -- in Tuesday's loss to the Red Wings. Weber has recorded exactly one goal in each of the previous three seasons, so it looks like he's already met his quota for 2014-15. The blueliner's lack of offense and poor plus/minus rating make it difficult to extract value from his lofty hit and blocked shot totals.

Weber (knee) has been activated from injured reserve and will play Saturday against the Islanders, Bill Hoppe of the Olean Times Herald reports. Weber missed the previous six games after undergoing a minor procedure on his left knee, but was fortunate not to miss more time thanks to a few favorable breaks in the Sabres' schedule. He appears on track to join Andre Benoit on the second pairing.

Weber (knee) will not rejoin the Buffalo lineup Tuesday versus the Red Wings. After undergoing minor knee surgery less than two weeks ago, Weber had set his sights on returning to action before the Christmas break, but the Sabres decided to table those plans since he's not quite at 100 percent health. That being said, he does appear to be closing in on a return, and will have more realistic odds of suiting up for the Sabres' first game out of the break Saturday against the Islanders.

Weber (knee) is targeting a return for Tuesday against the Red Wings, Mike Harrington of the Buffalo News reports. Weber has missed the Sabres' previous five games, including Sunday, with a knee injury. If he's unable to make a return Tuesday, his next opportunity to get on the ice will be against the Islanders on Saturday.

Weber (knee) resumed skating Friday, Bill Hoppe of the Olean Times Herald reports. Weber isn't expected to return until around Christmastime, so he'll probably still need a few days of conditioning and practice time before he feels comfortable with his knee. He's already missed the last three games with the injury.

Weber (knee) has been placed on IR. The move is hardly surprising, as Weber is expected to be out through Christmas following minor surgery on his left knee. Mikhail Grigorenko has been recalled to take Weber's place on the roster.

Weber underwent a minor surgery on his left knee Friday that will likely keep him out until after Christmas. The minor arthroscopic procedure seems to have just been done for cleanup purposes, and fortunately, doesn't look like it will result in more than a month-long absence. Still, Weber will be forced to miss the next handful of games, paving the way for Andrej Meszaros (concussion) to reenter the lineup Saturday after a six-game absence. Weber has only four points and a minus-5 rating for the season, but he's been one of the team's top hitters (72 hits in 26 games) and shot blockers (53).

Weber missed Friday's practice with an undisclosed injury. Coach Ted Nolan wouldn't specify the nature of Weber's injury, but said that the blueliner was being evaluated and should have a clearer diagnosis of his condition in advance of Saturday's game versus the Panthers. With Weber considered questionable at best to play Saturday, Andrej Meszaros could draw back into the lineup.
