Sabres' Jordan Greenway: Requires additional procedure
Rotowire
Greenway underwent a procedure for his mid-body injury, per Heather Engel of NHL.com on Tuesday.
Head coach Lindy Ruff was quick to clarify that Greenway's procedure wasn't an operation but that they should know more about his potential recovery timeline soon. At this point, it seems unlikely the winger will be available for at least the Sabres' next three games, though it could still be longer. Jiri Kulich figures to fill a second-line role heading into Wednesday's matchup with Minnesota.

Sabres' Jordan Greenway: Lands on injured reserve
Rotowire
Greenway (undisclosed) was placed on injured reserve Thursday, per the NHL media site.
Greenway has been dealing with an undisclosed injury for nearly a week, and the Sabres indicated Monday that the 27-year-old is considered week-to-week. It isn't very surprising to see him land on injured reserve, but it isn't yet clear when he'll be in the mix to return to game action. Over 16 appearances this year, Greenway has logged three goals, six points, 40 hits and 16 blocked shots while averaging 16:17 of ice time.

Sabres' Jordan Greenway: Deemed week-to-week
Rotowire
Greenway (undisclosed) is now considered week-to-week and won't travel with the Sabres' for their three-game road trip, Heather Engel of NHL.com reports Monday.
Greenway has already missed one game, so he should be a strong candidate for injured reserve given his recovery timeline. Offensively, the 27-year-old winger was slumping prior to getting hurt with just two points in his last 10 appearances. How the forward lines shake out against the Kings on Wednesday will likely depend on the availability of Tage Thompson (lower body).

Sabres' Jordan Greenway: Questionable versus Flyers
Rotowire
Greenway has been playing through a nagging undisclosed injury that could sideline him against Philadelphia on Saturday, Lance Lysowski of The Buffalo News reports.
After the clash with the Flyers, the Sabres will be off until a matchup with the Kings on Wednesday, so it seems like it would be a good time to shut Greenway down without having him miss too much time. The 27-year-old winger has managed just one goal in his last 10 outings while registering a mere nine shots. Unless he starts shooting the puck more, Greenway may struggle to break out of his slump.

Rotowire

The winger has three goals, three assists, 19 shots on net, 30 hits, 15 blocked shots, 11 PIM and a plus-5 rating over 13 outings.

Sabres' Jordan Greenway: Continues strong start
Rotowire
Greenway scored a goal on two shots and added three hits in Wednesday's 6-5 overtime loss to the Penguins.
Greenway has scored in back-to-back games and now has three points over five contests. The winger has added 11 shots on net, 15 hits, seven blocked shots and a plus-3 rating while filling a middle-six role. Greenway has finished with a 0.5-points-per-game pace just once in his career, and that came in the abbreviated 2020-21 campaign. As such, he's best suited as a streaming option for fantasy until he can sustain his pace over a longer stretch.

Sabres' Jordan Greenway: Productive in Saturday's win
Rotowire
Greenway scored a goal on two shots, blocked three shots, added four PIM and went plus-3 in Saturday's 5-2 win over the Panthers.
Greenway has done a little bit of everything over four games this season. He has a goal, an assist, nine shots on net, nine hits, six blocked shots and a plus-2 rating. The 27-year-old winger mainly plays in a third-line role, but he saw 17:05 of ice time with the Sabres playing 11 forwards and seven defensemen Saturday. Greenway's usage early in the year and his all-around production despite the lack of a power-play role makes him an interesting target for fantasy managers in deep formats.

Sabres' Jordan Greenway: Moves up after Peterka's injury
Rotowire
Greenway registered an assist, four shots on goal and two hits in Saturday's 3-1 loss to the Devils.
John-Jason Peterka left Saturday's game with a concussion and is considered day-to-day. After Peterka's exit, Greenway took his spot on the top line with Tage Thompson and Alex Tuch, and that trio combined for the Sabres' lone goal. Greenway doesn't have an extended history of success in a top-six role, though he produced a decent 28 points over 67 appearances while averaging 17:15 of ice time per game last year. The 27-year-old winger plays a heavy game and could have fantasy appeal in deeper formats if he remains on the top line throughout Peterka's absence.
