The Sabres have confirmed that Hall of Fame broadcaster Rick Jeanneret (right) has made the trip to Washington and will return to the air for Sunday's game against the Capitals.
The game begins at 3 p.m and Jeanneret will join Rob Ray on the call for MSG and WGR Radio. Jeanneret has missed the first four games of the season due to an undisclosed illness.

He is a member of the Professional Hockey Writers Association and can vouch that exposed flesh freezes instantly when walking in downtown Winnipeg in January.
