Sabres captain Jack Eichel missed practice Wednesday at Harborcenter.
Head coach Phil Housley said afterward that "Jack is seeing our medical people and we'll know more tomorrow." Housley added he "still anticipates that Eichel will remain day to day" but reiterated his comment about seeing the medial staff and knowing more tomorrow.
Eichel has an upper body injury. He started Monday's game against the New York Islanders, but left after just playing four shifts.
Eichel took what was called a maintenance day from practice Sunday.
If Eichel is unable to play Thursday against Florida Evan Rodrigues will take his place between Jeff Skinner and Sam Reinhart.
