Comrie served as Ukko-Pekka Luukkonen's backup on Saturday while Devon Levi got some game action in the AHL. With the Sabres set to leave for a California road trip, Comrie returns to Rochester, and Levi is back with the Sabres. Comrie has gone 2-1-0 with a 1.67 GAA and .951 SV% in three AHL games since clearing waivers.
With Ukko-Pekka Luukkonen recovering from an illness, the Sabres have called Devon Levi, who is expected to serve as the backup to Eric Comrie on Tuesday. Comrie has been inconsistent through six games this season (1-4-0), posting an ugly 3.99 GAA and .864 SV%. and has failed to record a quality start since his season debut on October 21st. The Sabres have struggled to score, losing three straight contests, and, as such, are +119 home underdogs against a rolling Detroit Red Wings team that has won five of their last six outings (5-1-0).

Comrie will take the crease for the first time in four games as he takes on New Jersey on the road Saturday. The 28-year-old has struggled as Buffalo's third goaltender this season, with his 1-2-0 record, 2.62 GAA, and .898 SV%. He will take on the New Jersey Devils, who are trying to right the ship after three straight loses and are 12th in the NHL in goals per game.
Comrie has not played since October 27 after suffering a lower-body injury but will be available to play on Friday. Before his injury, Comrie played well, posting a 2.45 GAA and .914 SV% in three games (1-1-0). The Sabres have leaned heavily on the tandem of Devon Levi and Ukko-Pekka Luukkonen in his absence but the Sabres will give Comrie the opportunity to immediately rediscover some of his early season pedigree as the starting goalie against the Winnipeg Jets.

Before his injury, Comrie played well, posting a 2.45 GAA and .914 SV% in three games (1-1-0). Despite his availability to rejoin the team, it is unclear when the Sabres will opt to put him back in between the pipes as the team has leaned heavily on the tandem of Devon Levi and Ukko-Pekka Luukkonen in Comrie's absence.
Comrie has been placed on the injured reserve with a lower-body injury after recording a 2.45 GAA and .914 SV% in three games (1-1-0) and is expected to miss at least a few weeks. With Devon Levi still unavailable, Ukko-Pekka Luukkonen has filled in admirably, posting a 2.84 GAA and .915 SV% along with one shutout in three games (2-1-0) and should continue to be the number one goaltender for the Sabres in the interim.
Comrie had filled in as the starting goalie with Devon Levi already sidelined and recorded a 2.45 GAA and .914 SV% in three games (1-1-0) but will now be sidelined for at least a few weeks with a lower-body injury. With Levi still unavailable, Ukko-Pekka Luukkonen will likely take on the majority of goaltending duties for the Sabres. Devin Cooley will serve as the Sabres backup in the interim.
Comrie will be the starter ahead of the Sabres Friday night matchup against the New Jersey Devils. With Devon Levi still injured, Comrie has seen most of the action in the crease and has fared well, posting a 2.05 GAA and .923 SV% in two games (1-1-0). That said, Comrie will face his toughest assignment yet on Friday as the Sabres will visit the New Jersey Devils and their third-ranked offence (4.00 GF/GP).

With Devon Levi still sidelined (lower-body) for at least the next two games, Comrie will get his second consecutive start for the Sabres. On Saturday, Comrie was stellar, allowing only one goal on 25 shots en route to a 3-1 victory over the New York Islanders. Despite being -178 home favourites, Comrie and the Sabres will have their work cut out for them against a Montreal Canadiens team that is off to a surprising 2-1-1 start. The Canadiens are averaging 3.25 goals per game.

Comrie has yet to appear in any of the Sabres' four games thus far this season but is expected to start Saturday after occupying the crease at morning skate. The 28-year-old was 9-9-1 with an .886 SV% and a 3.67 GAA in 19 games started in 2022-23. He takes on the New York Islanders, who have gotten points in all three of their matchups (2-0-1) and are 22nd in the NHL in goals per game (2.67).
