Ryan O'Reilly (foot) was not wearing a red jersey at Monday's practice

O'Reilly (foot) was not wearing a red jersey at Monday's practice, reports Mike Harrington of The Buffalo News.

Analysis:

This indicates that O'Reilly has been cleared for full contact after missing the past month with a foot injury. His official return date has not been set, and the Sabres have yet to officially activate him from the injured reserve, but will likely do so soon. The Sabres don't play until Wednesday against Montreal.
