The Sabres on Tuesday moved Hunwick (neck) to AHL Rochester, where he will play at least a game or two for conditioning purposes, John Vogl of The Athletic reports.
Hunwick is still awaiting his 2018 Sabres debut, with the light now appearing at the end of the tunnel.

Even when healthy, the veteran defenseman isn't guaranteed to see consistent ice time.
