Sabres send prospect to Rochester

The Buffalo Sabres on Friday loaned defense prospect Ryan Johnson to the Rochester Americans.

Johnson, 23, suffered a lower-body injury late in training camp.

The 6-foot-1, 195-pound Johnson compiled seven assists in 41 games as a rookie with the Sabres last season and nine assists in 27 contests with the Amerks.

The Sabres drafted Johnson 32nd overall in 2019. He played four seasons of college hockey at Minnesota before turning pro in 2023.
