BUFFALO, N.Y. (AP) — With top-line forward Ryan O'Reilly out, the Buffalo Sabres have recalled his older brother from the minors.
Cal O'Reilly was promoted from Rochester on Monday. The move comes a day after coach Dan Bylsma announced Ryan O'Reilly would miss between three and four weeks with a lower body injury.
Bylsma did not reveal any details of the injury. O'Reilly was hurt in a 4-0 win at Columbus on Friday.
The Sabres signed Cal O'Reilly in free agency last summer shortly after acquiring his brother in a multi-player trade with Colorado.
O'Reilly has six goals and 22 assists in 44 games with Rochester. He also has an assist in five games with the Sabres during a previous call up.
Buffalo opens a three-game California road trip at Anaheim on Wednesday.
