In just his second game with the Buffalo Sabres, forward Chris Stewart found himself on the wrong end of a collision with goaltender Anders Lindback on Thursday.

Here's how Mike Harrington of the Buffalo News assessed the situation from his vantage point.

No penalty was assessed on the play.
After the game, Harrington reported that Stewart was limping and his right ankle was wrapped, and head coach Ted Nolan said the forward is doubtful for Friday's game against the Florida Panthers.
