3 years agoTampa Bay Lightning defenseman Ryan McDonagh (upper body) is set to end an eight-game absence on Sunday against Buffalo. He's replacing Cal Foote in the lineup. The veteran rearguard has been on the cusp of returning all week and finally rejoins the action. Ryan McDonagh typically eats up over 20 minutes on the blue line and has done a bit of everything for the team over the course of the season, tallying 21 points in 60 games with 82 hits and 116 blocks. He's slated to skate with Erik Cernak on the second defensive pairing.--Taavi Pailk - RotoBaller
