Player Notes
September 20, 2008
Sabres defenseman Teppo Numminen passed his physical, which is a big departure from last season's physical, when he found out he needed a new heart valve, according to the Buffalo News.

Our View:Numminen, 40, got well enough to play in the season's final game last season, but he figures to play in many more games this year.
August 8, 2008
Teppo Numminen, who played only one game last season because of heart surgery, has re-signed with the Sabres on a one year, $1.1 million deal, according to the Associated Press.

Our View:Numminen, a 40 year old defensemen, has long been a reliable defender, though no longer one who is fantasy relevant. Take stock of how her performs in the preseason before you even consider rostering him this year.
July 23, 2008
The Sabres are hoping to bring back Teppo Numminen, who missed almost all of last season after undergoing open heart surgery, according to the Buffalo News.

Our View:He stated that he would like to play another season, and the team would like to retain his services. The defenseman could hold decent fantasy value, namely in leagues that reward points for penalty minutes, but he will remain a health risk.
