Thomas Vanek has provided one of the few bright spots for the Buffalo Sabres this season, but there are question marks surrounding his short-term health.

According to the Associated Press, Vanek missed Wednesday's practice and is questionable for tomorrow's game against the Toronto Maple Leafs. He is listed as day-to-day after leaving Tuesday's game against the Montreal Canadiens when he was hit with a shot off the stick of teammate Christian Ehrhoff.

Vanek leads the Sabres in scoring with 14 goals and 31 points in 27 games.

The Sabres, coming off a 3-2 overtime win over the Canadiens, are 13th in the Eastern Conference and six points out of a playoff spot.
