Adam Mair out 6 weeks

Well if you want to try and solve the Sabres dilema of having 16 forwards and only 12 roster spots, throw in an injury to loosen up the log jam. Adam Mair had surgery on his hip and will miss a minimum of six weeks, the team announced Tuesday. Training camp starts Sept. 12 and the first regular-season game is Oct. 3, a little less than five weeks away. This is the second straight year Mair will miss training camp due to a injury.
