As expected, Tatar (illness) will play Friday against the Sabres, Gregg Krupa of The Detroit News reports.

Tatar missed Wednesday's game against St. Louis due to an illness, but was able to practice Thursday, which was the first indication he would likely be available for Friday's tilt.  The former second-round pick has played pretty well this season, tallying 27 points (14 goals, 13 assists) in 45 games.
