The Sabres are looking to make the playoffs this year

An injury not only would hurt Buffalo's season, but Dahlin, himself, is also on the cusp of signing a long-term contract extension.
The apparent injury looks to be a false alarm
After the scrimmage, Dahlin himself confirmed that he is feeling and fine and Sabres' fans should breath a sigh of relief. It will be wise for the Sabres' to continue to monitor the situation, as they do not want Rasmus to suffer any lingering effects throughout the rest of training camp.
