The National Hockey League’s deadline for team’s to submit their final rosters for the season was at 5 p.m. EST.

The Sabres announced the signing of Rasmus Ristolainen just a couple hours prior, and now, have finalized their roster.

Brendan Guhle did not make the team, but Derek Grant and Hudson Fasching did. The Sabres have sent Nick Baptise, Dan Catenacci, Justin Falk and Alexander Nylander to Rochester. Guhle has been sent to the WHL.

Both Ryan O’Reilly and Kyle Okposo are dealing with injuries that could very well have them miss the season opener on Thursday against Montreal.

I founded Buffalo Hockey Central in 2008 and have poured hours and hours into this site. Luckily, we have a great team of writers and designers who have helped keep this up and running despite a ton of out-of-pocket costs. We do this because we enjoy it, and we're desperate to see the Sabres win the Cup someday, but they have to make the playoffs first.
