6 years agoBuffalo Sabres defenseman Lawrence Pilut will be Rasmus Ristolainen's partner on the team's top defensive pairing in Monday's matchup against Nashville. The 22-year-old blueliner had a solid NHL debut on Friday against Florida in a 3-2 overtime loss, which he finished with a plus-one rating in 12:48 on the ice, so it looks like head coach Phil Housley really liked what he saw. Pilut is an undrafted rookie out of Sweden, who's got plenty of fantasy potential. He was named defenseman of the year last season in the Swedish league after picking up 38 points in 52 games.--Taavi Pailk - RotoBaller
