To undergo disc surgery Huglen, who's been dealing with significant problems due to a bulging disc in his back, will undergo microdiscectomy surgery this week, Lance Lysowski of The Buffalo News reports. Impact While no fun, bulging discs often heal without surgery, but in Huglen's case he'll require the surgical removal of abnormal material that places pressure on a nerve root or the spinal cord. This is actually good news for the Sabres' fourth-round pick from the 2019 Draft, as he finally will have a plan for a return to action. Huglen has indicated he'd like to return to action for Fargo of the USHL this season, though he also has the option to play for the University of Minnesota if he so chooses.
