The 21-year-old center played about 12 minutes in the first Sabres game, then in the second matchup he took a hit along the boards, keeled over, skated off the ice, and didn’t return.

Bummer for Frost, who started with the big boys this season after a 2019-2020 campaign in which he split time between Philadelphia and the Lehigh Valley. He was centering Travis Konecny and Oskar Lindblom in Sean Couturier’s absence.
As for Myers, “week to week” isn’t very palatable right now. Mark Friedman should be the next man up, while Derrick Pouliot and Nate Prosser are the defensemen on the taxi squad.
