Dennis Gilbert News: Upcoming Opportunities – RotoWire

Gilbert has played in just one of the Sabres’ first 11 games.

Gilbert, a Buffalo native, played at home on Oct. 12 against the Panthers, recording three goals and one blocked shot in 4:49 of ice time. While it hasn’t been going very well for the Sabers in the 4-6-1, they have a pretty solid back four and that group has enjoyed good health early on. Gilbert may get an occasional look at Matias Samuelsson or Connor Clifton, but it’s unlikely he’ll get solid playing time this season.
