"Ruff said Norris will miss "a significant amount of time" when providing the update before Buffalo's game at Boston, and two days after the center was injured in a 4-0 season-opening loss to the New York Rangers. Ruff previously said the injury is a new one, but similar to a torn oblique that led to Norris missing the final month of last season."
"It's the latest setback for the 26-year-old Norris, who had three operations to correct a shoulder issue dating to his college career at Michigan. And it's a major blow to the Sabres, who acquired Norris in a trade that sent center Dylan Cozens and defenseman Dennis Gilbert to Ottawa in March. Norris has topped 20 goals three times, including 35 in 2021-22. But he's yet to play a full season because of injuries over his five-year career."
Josh Norris is out indefinitely with an upper-body injury and will miss a significant amount of time. The injury occurred late in a 4-0 season-opening loss to the New York Rangers when he fell forward and crumpled after losing a faceoff to Mika Zibanejad. The new injury is similar to a torn oblique that caused Norris to miss the final month of last season. The 26-year-old had three operations for a longstanding shoulder issue from college. The absence represents a major blow to Buffalo after acquiring Norris in a trade that sent Dylan Cozens and Dennis Gilbert to Ottawa. Norris has topped 20 goals three times but has never played a full season due to injuries.
