After suffering a lower-body injury that sidelined him for 11 games, Ryan O’Reilly is expected to return to Buffalo’s lineup tonight. He should join a line with Evander Kane and Nicolas Deslauiers, while potential rookie of the year Jack Eichel will stay with Sam Reinhart, who has five points in his last five games.

The Sabres have won five of the past seven meetings with the Canadiens but lost 3-2 at Montreal last Thursday. But the Habs have lost six of their last eight games and were smoked 4-1 at home by the Panthers on Tuesday night.
