Colten Ellis - Page 3 - NHL News & Rumors

Burned by Flames Ellis made 29 saves in Wednesday's 6-2 loss to Calgary.

Impact 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. Ellis has started four of the last five games for a Buffalo team searching for some stability in net, going 2-2-0 with a 3.77 GAA and .886 save percentage, and the 25-year-old may not be the solution.

In goal Wednesday Ellis will start at home versus the Flames on Wednesday, Heather Engel of NHL.com reports.

Impact 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 25-year-old appears to be pushing for more playing time with the Sabres, but he's still part of a goaltending trio that also includes Ukko-Pekka Luukkonen and Alex Lyon.

Cruises to third win Ellis made 32 saves in Monday's 5-1 win over the Oilers.

Impact 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 and Alex Lyon are both still in the picture.

Tending twine Monday Ellis will defend the home crease against the Oilers on Monday, Mike Harrington of The Buffalo News reports.

Impact Ellis has seen limited playing time for the Sabres this season but has been relatively effective when called upon, going 2-1-0 with a 3.35 GAA and .895 save percentage over his three appearances. He's coming off an overtime win in Detroit on Saturday, and he'll draw back-to-back starts for the first time this season. The Oilers have had a middling offense early in the year, scoring 3.10 goals per game, which ranks 16th in the league.

Earns OT win Saturday Ellis stopped 24 of 28 shots in Saturday's 5-4 overtime win over the Red Wings.

Impact Ellis has won two of his three starts this season, but he's allowed at least four goals in his two outings this month. With an .895 save percentage in his three appearances, and still in a competition with Alex Lyon and Ukko-Pekka Luukkonen for the goaltending job, it's hard to trust Ellis in most fantasy formats. It's unclear when he'll play again, but the Sabres' next game is scheduled for Monday at home against the Oilers.

Fades in loss Ellis stopped 32 of 36 shots in Wednesday's 5-2 loss to the Mammoth. The fifth goal was an empty-netter.

Impact 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. It ends up as a middling effort for the 25-year-old, who is 1-1-0 with six goals allowed on 67 shots over his first two NHL appearances. Ellis has been battling with Alex Lyon and Ukko-Pekka Luukkonen for playing time, though none of the three goalies has yet to get on a hot streak to seize the top job. Given the crowded crease, it's unclear when Ellis might play again.
