LaFontaine Out at Least 3 Weeks

Buffalo Sabre center Pat LaFontaine will sit out three to four more weeks because of the effects of a concussion last month, the team said Friday.

LaFontaine, the Sabres’ captain, has been physically exhausted, often feeling tired and worn out, since the fifth concussion of his career Oct. 17, Buffalo General Manager John Muckler said. The injury is not career-ending, Muckler said during a news conference.
