Status report
Anderson will play for the first time since Jan. 23. Luukkonen had started four of the previous five games, with Comrie also getting a start. ... The Sabres will use new forward combinations, including having Cozens center the first line with Skinner and Tuch. … The Kings are expected to use the same lineup that played in a 6-0 win against the Pittsburgh Penguins on Saturday. … Grundstrom practiced in a no-contact jersey Monday but the forward is expected to miss his 10th straight game.
