They have lost eight straight games ahead of tonight&#8217;s clash with the Senators. It will also be their final home game of this season. Nylander has skated in 12 games so far with Buffalo in the NHL, collecting two goals and two assists.<\/p>\n<p>The 21-year-old winger has also played in 49 games with the Rochester Americans in the AHL. He has tallied 12 goals and 19 assists for 31 points in those 49 contests. He will probably miss both of the final regular season games for the Sabres, but they expect him to be healthy for the AHL playoffs. Nylander is former eighth pick overall in the first round of the 2016 NHL Draft. He has taken part of 19 NHL games collecting six points.<\/p>\n<h3>What Does This Mean For The Future<\/h3>\n<p>During his last game on Tuesday night at KeyBank Center versus the <a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonhockey.com\/nhl-teams\/predators\/\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Nashville Predators<\/a>, Nylander skated on the third line with <strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.hockey-reference.com\/players\/m\/mitteca01.html?utm_campaign=Linker&amp;utm_source=direct&amp;utm_medium=linker-\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Casey Mittelstadt<\/a><\/strong> and <strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.hockey-reference.com\/players\/s\/shearco01.html?utm_campaign=Linker&amp;utm_source=direct&amp;utm_medium=linker-\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Conor Sheary<\/a><\/strong>. <strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.hockey-reference.com\/players\/w\/wilsosc01.html?utm_campaign=Linker&amp;utm_source=direct&amp;utm_medium=linker-\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Scott Wilson<\/a><\/strong> will take Nylander\u00b4s spot on that offensive line.
