Status report
Cozens, a center, did not join the Sabres' morning skate Saturday until 15 minutes in and skated on his own, not participating in rushes; his status for the game was not confirmed by Buffalo coach Don Granato, who said all lineup decisions will be game-time. ... Hartman returns after being a healthy scratch for a 3-2 overtime win against the Philadelphia Flyers on Thursday. ... Fleury will make his third straight start. ... Wild coach Dean Evason said there is a player who will be a game-time decision but would not name him.
