Buffalo Sabres lines tonight include Josh Norris-Noah Ostlund change, Logan Stanley-Michael Kesselring question originally appeared on The Sporting News. Add The Sporting News as a Preferred Source by clicking here.
The Buffalo Sabres' lines for Game 6 against the Boston Bruins on Friday night had to feature one change, and they may have to make another.
The required swap came because of Noah Ostlund's injury. He will have to miss out, and Josh Norris returns from his own ailment.
The question is on the defensive end. Logan Stanley is a question mark. If he can't go at game time, Michael Kesselring would dress.
Alex Lyon will remain in goal, and the rest of the lines will be just about the same.

Buffalo Sabres lines tonight
This is how the forward lines are expected to look for Buffalo on Friday night:

This is how the defenseman pairings are set, and if Stanley was out, he'd likely swap directly out with Kesselring:
- Mattias Samuelsson - Rasmus Dahlin
- Owen Power - Bowen Byram
- Logan Stanley - Conor Timmins
It seems like Norris will slot in on the first powerplay where Ostlund had been of late, but that could be shaken up throughout the game.
Stanley has gotten some penalty kill time, so if he sat, that'd have to be replaced.
