analysis |
Ellis drew a penalty in the first period on a collision in the crease. The Sabres cashed in on the power play, but Ellis left after the goal before being ruled out during the second period. Should he miss additional time, Ukko-Pekka Luukkonen and Alex Lyon will handle the goaltending duties. |
Ellis will be unavailable until he is cleared from the protocol. The 25-year-old goalie could very well miss some time after getting hit in the first period of Tuesday's game. For as long as he's unavailable, the Sabres' crease will be split between Ukko-Pekka Luukkonen and Alex Lyon. |

Ellis will get a chance in goal after giving up five goals on 35 shots in his last outing Wednesday versus the Flyers to begin the Sabres' road trip. He'll have an extremely tough task ahead, as the Oilers have erupted for 19 goals over their last four games. Ellis did defeat Edmonton on Nov. 17, stopping 32 of 33 shots in that 5-1 win for Buffalo. |

Ellis won his last outing, stopping 22 of 24 shots in a 3-2 shootout win over the Wild on Saturday. He is still working on carving out a larger share of playing time as the Sabres balance having three goalies on their roster. The Flyers have won three of their last four games while scoring 13 times in that span. |
Ellis gave up three goals, including two on Philadelphia power plays, in a span of 59 seconds during the first period. He allowed two more in the second before keeping things clean in the third, though it was too late to make a difference. Ellis continues to struggle to separate himself from Ukko-Pekka Luukkonen and Alex Lyon in the Sabres' goaltending battle. Ellis has a 4-3-0 record with a 3.40 |

Ellis has not played in the last four games since he allowed six goals on 35 shots to the Flames. The Sabres' three-man goalie room continues to make it difficult for any of the team's netminders to carve out a larger role. Ellis will have a tough test against the Wild, who have won seven straight games with three shutout victories in that span. |
Ellis was torched for six goals in his last outing, but he was able to pick up his third win in his last four starts with this performance. The second goal he allowed in regulation was off a turnover, so this was actually a pretty good performance for the 25-year-old. Ellis is up to 4-2-0 with a 3.13 GAA and an .898 save percentage across six starts this season. The Sabres don't have any back-to-b |

Ellis is set to start in an easy matchup. He'll be making his third straight start after allowing five goals on 61 shots over his last two wins.

The rookie netminder crashed back to earth in the third period Wednesday, giving up four goals on 14 shots as the Flames blew open a 2-2 tie. Ellis was mainly the victim of bad luck and bad defensive play in front of him however -- the final puck to get past him caromed off the back glass, came over the top of the net and deflected in off his skate before he could even locate it.

The 25-year-old rookie mostly shut down the high-powered Edmonton offense en route to his second straight win and third in four starts. Ellis is making a case to become more than just the third wheel in the Buffalo crease, posting a 3.02 GAA and .907 save percentage while starting three of the last four contests, but he'll be tough to rely on in most fantasy formats as long as Ukko-Pekka Luukkonen |

Ellis held the Mammoth to one goal over the first two periods, but the home team erupted in the third to run away with the game.

Ellis was scratched from his scheduled start Saturday against Toronto due to tightness in his back, but he downplayed the severity of the issue Monday. He said that he wasn't feeling 100 percent healthy Saturday, and the team made the decision to simply start Ukko-Pekka Luukkonen rather than having Ellis push through. Head coach Lindy Ruff said after practice that Ellis felt much better and will l |

Ellis was originally going to start Saturday, according to Friedman, but he's not 100 percent. Ukko-Pekka Luukkonen (lower body) will make his season debut instead after being activated off injured reserve Thursday. Ellis won his NHL debut Wednesday, stopping 29 of 31 shots against Detroit. |
Ellis was originally expected to start in Saturday's road game against Toronto, but he missed that assignment due to his injury. Ukko-Pekka Luukkonen got the nod instead and stopped 18 of 22 shots in a 4-3 overtime loss. Even if Ellis ends up being an option for Tuesday's home game against Columbus, it's not clear if he'll play between the pipes. In addition to Ellis and Luukkonen, Buffalo also ha |
