Just when it seemed things couldn't get worse for the nosediving Buffalo Sabres, the team announced Tuesday defenseman Jake McCabe will undergo shoulder surgery and miss the next four-to-six months.
McCabe was placed on injured reserve Feb. 11 after undergoing surgery to repair a thumb injury suffered while blocking a shot, but his most recent ailment is of the shoulder variety.
In 53 games this season, he registered three goals and nine assists in 19:30 of ice time per night.
