Sabourin logged an assist and five hits in Saturday's 5-4 overtime loss to the Mammoth.
This was just the second appearance of the season for Sabourin, who has often been scratched in favor of a seventh defenseman. The 34-year-old enforcer has contributed one shot on net, seven hits and five PIM so far. He won't play every game, and his contributions on offense will be few and far between when he's in the lineup.

Sabourin signed a one-year, two-way contract with Tampa Bay on Saturday.
Sabourin had a goal, five points, 89 PIM and 63 hits in 26 regular-season appearances with Tampa Bay in 2025-26. He also had six goals, eight points and 22 PIM in 24 outings with AHL Syracuse in the 2025-26 regular season. The 33-year-old will compete for an Opening Night roster spot with the Lightning during training camp, but it wouldn't be surprising if he starts the 2026-27 campaign in the minors.

Sabourin notched an assist and two hits in Wednesday's 4-2 loss to the Rangers.
Sabourin ended a 12-game point drought with the helper, though he also missed 11 contests in that span, including some due to a lower-body injury. The 33-year-old could see some action in the playoffs, but he's far from a lock to be in the lineup. He has five points, 11 shots on net, 63 hits and 89 PIM over 26 regular-season outings, and he provides grit in a bottom-six role when he suits up.

Sabourin (lower body) will play in Monday's road game against the Sabres, per Eduardo A. Encina of the Tampa Bay Times.
Sabourin will return to Tampa Bay's lineup after missing each of the team's last two games. Overall, the 33-year-old winger has four points, 89 shots on net and 52 hits across 22 games this season. He'll rejoin the Lightning's fourth line as the center between Corey Perry and Mitchell Chaffee.

Sabourin (undisclosed) is considered a game-time decision for Monday's game against the Sabres, Eduardo A. Encina of the Tampa Bay Times reports.
Sabourin has missed the last two games due to his unspecified injury, but head coach Jon Cooper said after Monday's morning skate that the 33-year-old is "going to try" to play against Buffalo. Across 11 appearances since the Olympic break, Sabourin has recorded an assist, 28 hits, 26 PIM and three blocked shots while averaging 7:25 of ice time.

Sabourin (undisclosed) will miss Saturday's home clash against the Bruins, per Benjamin Pierce of the Lightning's official site.
Sabourin is set to miss his second consecutive game Saturday with an undisclosed injury. Overall, the 33-year-old winger is up to four points, 10 shots on net, 52 hits and 10 blocked shots across 22 appearances this season. His next chance to return to Tampa Bay's lineup is for the start of the team's upcoming road trip Monday against the Sabres.
