Peyton Krebs - Scores in Monday's loss Krebs scored a goal on two shots in Monday's 7-5 loss to the Canadiens.

Impact Krebs has two points over his last three games, but offense is likely to remain sporadic for him as long as he's on the fourth line. The 23-year-old center is up to five points, 10 shots on net, 25 hits and 13 PIM over 15 appearances. Krebs could help in deep fantasy formats that reward his physical playing style.

Mattias Samuelsson - Undergoing evaluation Tuesday Samuelsson, who sustained a lower-body injury in Monday's matchup with Montreal, will be further evaluated Tuesday, Heather Engel of NHL.com reports.

Impact Samuelsson was playing in his first game back after being benched by head coach Lindy Ruff for the prior three games when he suffered his lower-body injury. The blueliner's stint in the press box didn't come as a huge surprise considering he has just one point in 13 appearances while also sporting a minus-2 rating. If Samuelsson can't play in Thursday's clash with St. Louis, look for Dennis Gilbert to rejoin the lineup -- though Henri Jokiharju should also be in the mix.

Tage Thompson - Being evaluated Tuesday Thompson, who suffered a lower-body injury versus the Canadiens on Monday, will be evaluated Tuesday, Heather Engel of NHL.com reports.

Impact The Sabres have a scheduled off day Tuesday since they aren't back in action until Thursday's matchup with the Blues, which means that the team won't be providing a real update on Thompson's status. If the No. 1 center does miss out, it could mean more opportunities for Dylan Cozens or moving Jack Quinn to his natural center position. For his part, it's been an impressive start to the season for Thompson, having racked up 11 goals and seven assists, including four power-play points, in 16 games this year.

Impact Levi was saddled with the loss despite logging just 18:50 of ice time in the game. Following an injury sustained during Sunday's practice, Luukkonen left Monday's game after the second period. Levi could get the nod for Thursday's home matchup versus St. Louis if Luukkonen isn't available.

Impact Luukkonen was replaced by Devon Levi to begin the third period. Levi surrendered two goals on four shots to receive the loss. The 25-year-old Luukkonen left the game early after getting nicked up during Sunday's practice, according to Bill Hoppe of the Olean Times Herald. An update on Luukkonen's status should come before Thursday's home matchup against the Blues, but the issue may not be anything to worry about.
