Derek Roy, the Buffalo Sabres’ leading scorer, will miss the rest of the season after surgery for a torn quadriceps tendon, the team announced today.

Roy will have surgery in the next few days for the injury suffered in Thursday night’s loss to the Florida Panthers. His estimated recovery time is four to six months.

In 35 games this season, Roy has tallied 35 points, including 10 goals. Thomas Vanek is second in scoring with 25 points.

The Sabres, who are off for the Christmas holiday, depart later in the weekend for a road trip to Calgary and Edmonton. They are tied for 11th in the Eastern Conference standings.

This Basically Sums Up the Buffalo-Edmonton Game Last Night

The Buffalo Sabres absolutely destroyed the Edmonton Oilers last night. 10-2! Lindy Ruff just did not lay off the gas. That is exactly what a team fighting for a playoff position needs though. From Yahoo!:

Drew Stafford scored his first of three goals 10 seconds into the Buffalo Sabres’ 10-2 rout of Edmonton on Tuesday night.

“There were plenty of areas of our game plan that could be criticized,” MacTavish said. “We were just chasing our tails all night. We’re not as masochistic as it may seem watching that game. We have to execute our game plan a whole lot better than we did.”

Thomas Vanek and Derek Roy had a goal and two assists apiece for the Sabres, who also got goals from Nathan Paetsch, Jochen Hecht, Jaroslav Spacek and Tim Connolly with a pair.

Buffalo (25-18-5) has won four of five and eight of 11 games.
