Neuvirth surrendered four goals on 37 shots in a loss to the Maple Leafs on Tuesday. He got no help at all. The Sabres only managed to fire TEN shots at the Toronto net, so Neuvirth would have had to be ridiculous to get to a shootout tied 0-0. He gets the call tonight vs. the Red Wings, but look at the other options.
Neuvirth stopped 29 of 30 shots in a 2-1 win over the Sharks on Saturday. It was Neuvirth's first win and the Sabres second this season. He has allowed nine goals on 98 shots (.916 SV%) through three starts. It has been a solid start to the year, but he can't be relied on to rack up wins, even on Tuesday vs. a struggling Maple Leafs side.
Neuvirth surrendered three goals on 33 shots in a loss to the Ducks on Wednesday. It was a better outing than his first start against the Ducks and that earned him another start tonight against an equally as tough Sharks squad. Sabres goalies are nearly impossible to trust given how much Buffalo has struggled in October.
Neuvirth allowed five goals on 44 shots in his season debut. He has been on the sidelines for five of the Sabres' six games, but will start tonight in Anaheim. He didn't do so well in his first start of the season vs. the Ducks, so no reason to think that will change tonight on the road.
Neuvirth will make his season debut tonight after Jhonas Enroth got the first two starts of the season. Neuvirth was 4-8-2 with a 2.78 GAA and .921 SV% last season, but should not be considered this after noon with the Ducks in town.
Neuvirth will not start tonight vs. Calgary, so either Nathan Lieuwen or Matt Hackett will get the call. Neuvirth is set skate alone after practice, consider him day-to-day.
Neuvirth said he is feeling better every day and hopes he will be good to go. With Jhonas Enroth not on the trip, Nathan Lieuwen would likely start if Neuvirth is unfit to play.
This explains why the Sabres recalled Nathan Lieuwen this morning. This would lead us to believe that Jhonas Enroth will start again, but no official announcement has been made. Neuvirth is day-to-day.
Neuvirth stopped 42 of 44 shots in a 2-0 loss to the Panthers in his Sabres debut last week. It is something he will need to get used to, the Sabres rank dead last in the NHL with only 1.89 goals per game this season. He will take on the Hurricanes in Carolina tonight. Neuvirth is 0-4-2 on the road this season.

Neuvirth will make his Sabres debut tonight in Florida. He was dealt to the Sabres on Wednesday as a part of trade that sent Jaroslav Halak to Washington. He was 4-6-2 with a 2.82 GAA and .914 SV% with the Caps this season, but now moves to one of the worst teams in the NHL. He will likely go head-to-head with Roberto Luongo who is expected to make his Panthers re-debut(?).
Neuvirth was 4-6-2 with a 2.82 GAA and .914 SV% with the Capitals this season. The 25-year-old is a good goaltender who will push for starts behind Jhonas Enroth. A healthy goaltending battle is a good thing, especially on a young, below average. team.
Neuvirth was slated to start for the Capitals tonight vs. Winnipeg, but came down with the flu and will now turn the starting duties over the Braden Holtby.
Neuvirth stopped 27 of 28 shots in a 1-0 loss to the Islanders on Tuesday. The Caps were unable to put one by Evgeni Nabokov, so Neuvirth was the tough-luck loser. In his three consecutive starts he went 1-1-1 with a 2.90 GAA and .913 SV%. Tonight he will run into a Jets squad who have been a completely different team under Paul Maurice (9-2-0).

Neuvirth gave up five goals on 30 shots in a 6-5 OT win over the Red Wings on Sunday. His numbers don't look great, but he made the saves he needed to en route to his fourth win of the season. Tonight he will face the Islanders at home. Neuvirth is 4-2-0 with a 3.05 GAA and .902 SV% in Washington this season.

Neuvirth gave up three goals on 45 shots in Friday's shootout loss to the Red Wings. He will get a second crack at them this afternoon in Washington. Neuvirth is 3-5-2 with a 2.79 GAA and .917 SV% this season and makes for a strong Sunday, late surge spot-start.
Neuvirth stopped 28 of 30 shots in a loss to the Devils last Friday. Neuvirth is 3-5-1 with a 2.79 GAA and .915 SV% heading into Friday's contest. The Red WIngs get Henrik Zetterberg back tonight, but they still remain a beatable opponent having lost five of eight while being outscored 23-14.
Neuvirth stopped 28 of 30 shots in a loss to the Devils last Friday. Neuvirth is 3-5-1 with a 2.79 GAA and .915 SV% heading into Friday's contest. Depending on what happens in tonight's game, there is a chance that Braden Holtby could start both games of the back-to-back, but for now the plan is for Neuvirth to go.
