Gustavsson (illness) will make the trip to Buffalo for Thursday's matchup with the Sabres.

Analysis:

Gustavsson was cleared to practice Tuesday, which was the first indication that he is likely nearing a return to action. Although nothing has been confirmed yet, the fact that Gustavsson is travelling with the team indicates he may slot back into the lineup Thursday in some capacity, perhaps as the backup netminder. Expect an update on Gustavsson's status ahead of Thursday's contest.
