Sabres' Conor Sheary: Watches practice due to injury

Sheary sat out of Wednesday's practice due to a lower-body injury.

Sheary is battling for a top-six role with the Sabres after posting 14 goals and 30 points with the team last year. This injury may keep the 27-year-old out of Wednesday's preseason game versus the Blue Jackets, but the team considers him day-to-day and he should be fine for the season opener Oct. 3 versus his former team, the Penguins.
