Buffalo Sabres News

Reimer allowed four goals on 37 shots (.892 SV%) for his fourth-straight defeat as he picked up the loss against Los Angeles in his last start. It has been a horrific first half of the season for the 34-year-old veteran, who is 7-13-3, with a 3.26 GAA and .895 SV%. He will face the New Jersey Devils, who are on fire yet again with their current four-game winning streak after a 5-2 win over Los Angeles last game.

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.

The Sabres' roster shuffle continues as they try to carry three goalies, so Krebs comes back up and Ukko-Pekka Luukkonen goes to the AHL to make room. Krebs will likely draw into the lineup and return to his usual role on the fourth line. Krebs has picked up three goals and six assists (nine points) in 34 games this season.

Quinn has been having a solid rookie season, with six goals, 17 points, 50 SOG, and a +4 plus/minus through 33 games with the Sabres but was sent down to Rochester earlier in the week as a paper move due to the three healthy goaltender situation in Buffalo. He is back up with the big club and expected to stay for the remained of the year.

Krebs has three goals, six assists, 29 SOG, 23 PIMs and a -3 plus/minus through 34 games with the Sabres' but will head down to Rochester as a paper transaction on loan. Krebs should be back up with the Sabres sooner rather than later as he is not expected to stay in the minors long.

Clague has two assists, 14 SOG, 12 PIMs and a -2 plus/minus through 19 games but will be a healthy scratch Wednesday as Buffalo takes on Winnipeg. Jacob Bryson will be Clague's replacement in the lineup.

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.

Quinn's move is likely a paper transaction to make room for Ukko-Pekka Luukkonen to come up and start Thursday's game. Expect Quinn to be in the building on Thursday and be recalled before their next game.

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.

Reimer allowed four goals on 29 shots (.862 SV%) and picked up his sixth loss in seven starts as he was defeated by Boston his last time out. The season has not turned out as planned for the 34-year-old netminder, who is 7-12-3 with a 3.22 GAA and .895 SV%. He will face the Los Angeles Kings, who have won three of their last four games after a 6-3 victory over Edmonton last game.
