Luukkonen will start Thursday vs. the Islanders.

Luukkonen allowed three goals on 33 shots (.909 SV%) as he picked up his second defeat in three games as he was downed by Florida in his last start. The 23-year-old netminder has a great record at 10-5-1 but has struggled to stop the puck in general, as shown by his 3.41 GAA and .897 SV%. He faces the New York Islanders, who have been on a tough run as of late, losing six of their last seven games after a 4-1 loss to Boston last game.

The Sabres reassigned Ukko-Pekka Luukkonen to Rochester (AHL).

Buffalo continues to shuffle their lineup around so that they can carry three goalies, this is once again nothing more than a paper transaction. Luukkonen should remain with the team and could start Tuesday in Chicago. Look for Craig Anderson to start Monday vs. the Panthers.

Luukkonen will start Thursday vs. the Jets.

Luukkonen has had a busy week of being sent down and then recalled after winning his previous start for a sixth straight win by stopping 39 of 44 shots (.886 SV%) as he defeated Minnesota his last time out. The 23-year-old has an impressive 9-3-1 record, but a not-so-pretty 3.49 GAA and .894 SV%. He will face Winnipeg, who just snapped a five-game winning streak with a 7-5 loss to Detroit on Wednesday.

The Sabres have recalled Ukko-Pekka Luukkonen from Rochester (AHL).

Luukkonen was scheduled to start on Tuesday but was unavailable due to illness, recalling him this morning suggests that he's feeling better and is in line to start Thursday. With Luukkonen coming up, Jack Quinn was loaned to the AHL, but that's likely just a paper transaction to make room for Luukkonen.

Ukko-Pekka Luukonen has been loaned to Rochester (AHL).

Luukonen has a 9-3-1 record, 3.49 GAA and .894 SV% this season but will surprisingly be loaned back to Rochester (AHL) as Eric Comrie returns from a lower-body injury. The 23-year-old is expected to return to the club this season so this is just a temporary move.

Luukkonen stopped 37 of 40 shots (.925 SV%) for his fourth straight win as he picked up a surprising victory over Boston in his last start. The 23-year-old has taken over Buffalo's starting crease due to his 7-3-1 record, 3.35 GAA and .896 SV%. He will take on the Washington Capitals, who have won six of their last seven games after a 9-2 thumping of Montreal in their previous game.
