Weve had some key injuries back there. Its definitely a good problem for us to have going forward.We havent been in that situation the whole year long, so frankly its a new situation for us here at the 29-game mark, Sabres head coach Dan Bylsma said, according to The Buffalo News. Each defenseman thats stepped up and played for us has brought a little bit different element.Buffalo squares off against the Islanders at 7 p.m. on Friday.Bogosian has not played since Nov. 1 due to a knee sprain.
