Sabres' Dahlin leaves game with injury vs. Senators

Buffalo Sabres defenseman Rasmus Dahlin was forced from Saturday's game against the Ottawa Senators with an undisclosed injury, the team confirmed.

The 18-year-old blocked a shot in the second period and did not return for the third, according to Sportsnet's John Shannon.

The injury is not believed to be serious and head coach Phil Housley noted postgame that Dahlin will travel with the team to New York for its game against the Rangers on Sunday, but there has been no diagnosis yet, according to Mike Harrington of The Buffalo News.

Dahlin, the first overall pick in June's draft, picked up an assist Saturday before exiting, giving him five points in 14 games this season.
