Sabres' Mason Geertsen: Struggling to get into lineup

Geertsen was scratched for the 15th time in 20 games in Wednesday's 6-2 loss to the Flames.

Geertsen played in four of the first six games of the year, but the 30-year-old hasn't carved out a regular role even amid a tough stretch of injuries for the Sabres. Even when he plays, he's averaged just 4:07 of ice time over five appearances while adding eight hits and 12 PIM. He's failed to record a point in 30 NHL outings, and the defenseman-turned-winger is unlikely to ever produce offense at the level necessary to help in fantasy.
