Buffalo, NY (WGR 550) -- With Portland going into its All Star break the Sabres have called up D Marc-Andre Gragnani. Many had hoped the Sabres would make a trade to fill the hole on the blue line created by the injuries to Henrik Tallinder, Andre Sekera, Teppo Numminen, Mike Weber, Mike Funk and Mike Card. Gragnani is the Pirates leading scorer on defense with four goals and 26 assists in 44 games. In two games with Buffalo last season, he was scoreless and minus two in two games. Gragnani was Buffalo's third round pick in 2005. It's likely Lindy Ruff will use five defensemen and just give Gragnani a few shifts.
It's not Buffalo's way to make deals now as they almost never make in season trades unless it's around the trading deadline.
