Latest Fantasy Rumors
Working in starter's crease
Ellis was in the starter's crease ahead of Monday's matchup with Edmonton, Rachel Lenzi of The Buffalo News reports, indicating he'll be in goal.
ANALYSIS
Ellis has featured in two of the Sabres' last three contests and looks set to get another start Monday. In those two appearances, the 25-year-old netminder posted a 4.04 GAA while going 1-1-0, not exactly standout performances. As long as the Sabres are carrying three netminders on the 23-man roster, it's hard for fantasy managers to trust any of the trio of backstops.
