Sabres' Colten Ellis: Returns to practice Monday
Ellis (back) returned to practice Monday and should be available moving forward.
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 likely be fully available going forward.

Sabres' Colten Ellis: Is day-to-day
Ellis is day-to-day due to tightness in his back, Rachel Lenzi of The Buffalo News reports Saturday.
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 has goaltender Alex Lyon on the roster, so there's plenty of competition for starts.

Sabres' Colten Ellis: Won't play Saturday
Ellis (undisclosed) will miss Saturday's road game against Toronto, per Elliotte Friedman of Sportsnet.
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.

Sabres' Colten Ellis: Wins first appearance
Ellis stopped 27 of 29 shots in Wednesday's 4-2 win over the Red Wings.
Ellis stood tall against a tough opponent to come away with the win in his NHL debut. The 25-year-old was acquired by the Sabres prior to the start of the season when they claimed him off waivers from the Blues. Ellis has settled in as Alex Lyon's backup, but this strong performance could help Ellis gain more playing time. He doesn't have long to make an impression, as Ukko-Pekka Luukkonen (lower body) is with AHL Rochester on a conditioning assignment. Expect Lyon and Ellis to split the Sabres' upcoming home-and-home set versus the Maple Leafs on Friday and Saturday.

Sabres' Colten Ellis: Slated to face Detroit
Ellis is slated to guard the home crease against Detroit on Wednesday.
Ellis is getting ready to make his NHL debut. The 25-year-old had a 2.63 GAA and a .922 save percentage in 42 regular-season outings with AHL Springfield in 2024-25. Detroit's on a five-game winning streak and has averaged 3.80 goals per game in that span, so Ellis is starting his NHL career with a tough assignment.

Sabres' Colten Ellis: Claimed by Buffalo
Ellis was claimed off waivers by the Sabres on Monday, Elliotte Friedman of Sportsnet reports.
Ellis was waived by the Blues on Sunday, and he'll join a new organization ahead of the 2025-26 campaign. Although Ukko-Pekka Luukkonen (lower body) will miss the start of the regular season, Ellis will likely begin the year in the minors.

Blues' Colten Ellis: Lands on waivers
Ellis was placed on waivers by the Blues on Sunday, Jeremy Rutherford of The Athletic reports.
Ellis served as one of the Blues' Black Aces during last year's playoffs, but he didn't make any appearances and will be left off the Opening Night roster ahead of the 2025-26 campaign. He'll presumably head to AHL Springfield if he clears waivers and seems likely to spend most of the year in the minors.

Blues' Colten Ellis: Promoted from minors
Ellis was recalled from AHL Springfield on Monday.
Ellis figures to serve as an emergency depth option as one of the Blues' Black Aces alongside Nikita Alexandrov and Corey Schueneman. Looking at the goalie depth chart, Ellis slots in as the fourth option in the pipes behind Will Cranley. As such, it would likely take three injuries for Ellis to actually get into a playoff game.

Blues' Colten Ellis: Grabs two-year extension
Ellis penned a two-year, two-way contract extension with the Blues on Thursday.
Ellis was headed for restricted free agency this summer, so this extension gets some of the Blues' offseason work done early. The 2019 third-round pick has seen slightly more starts with AHL Springfield this season than Vadim Zherenko and would likely be the next man up if there was an injury to one of St. Louis' goalies.

Blues' Colten Ellis: Inks one-year deal
Ellis agreed to terms on a one-year, two-way contract with St. Louis on Tuesday.
Ellis split his time between the AHL and ECHL this season, logging 16 games for AHL Springfield in which he posted a 7-9-0 record and .924 save percentage while also going 12-5-2 for ECHL Orlando. Selected by the Blues in the third round of the 2019 NHL Draft, the Nova Scotia native shouldn't be expected to make his NHL debut anytime soon but could push for a more prominent role with the AHL Thunderbirds.
