Ullmark stopped 19 of 20 shots in the Sabres road win in Los Angeles last Saturday. Ullmark could work his way into more starts if he continues to play as well as he has through two games. Ullmark comes into Saturday at 2-0-0 while stopping 55 of the 56 shots (.982 SV%) that he has faced this year.
Ullmark stopped all 36 shots that he faced in the Sabres win in Arizona last Saturday. It was a great season debut for Ullmark, who will make his second start this afternoon in Los Angeles. The Kings are expected to get Anze Kopitar back, but still rank 28th in the NHL in scoring (2.00 GF/PG).
Ullmark will make his first start of the season after going 1-2-0 with a 2.00 GAA and .935 SV% in five games with the Sabres last year. Ullmark has shown the ability to be a quality spot-start option in the past and he draws a worthwhile matchup tonight in Arizona.
Ullmark allowed one goal on 13 shots after replacing Chad Johnson in the Sabres 4-1 loss to the Coyotes on Wednesday. In three NHL appearances this season, Ullmark has posted a 2.40 GAA and .933 SV% and makes for a decent spot-start option tonight vs. the visiting Canadiens—Montreal has lost four in a row and nine of their last 10 (1-7-2).
Ullmark was outstanding in his season debut back on January 11th. Ullmark, who is the Sabres goalie of the future, stopped 44 of 45 shots in a 3-1 win over the Blue Jackets and tonight he will make his second NHL start of 2018. The 24-year-old has gone 20-11-4 with a 2.44 GAA, .923 SV% and two shutouts in 42 games with Rochester (AHL) this season.

Blais appeared in just one game during his call-up before being a healthy scratch on Friday. Blais returns to the Rampage, where he has 11 goals and 17 assists (28 points) in 30 games.
MacDermid has been in the Kings lineup for the last nine games, but failed to record a point while posting a minus-7 rating. Overall he had just one goal and three assists in 34 games with the Kings, so he will head to Ontario to get some seasoning.
Amadio, 21, had one goal in an eight-game stint with the Kings earlier this year but has spent the majority of his time in the AHL, where he has collected 34 points (11G / 23A) in 30 games. Amadio centred the Kings third line in Tuesday’s practice, so look for him to be in the lineup when they face the Penguins on Thursday.
Ullmark was outstanding in his season debut on Thursday, turning away 44 of 45 shots in the Sabres win over the Blue Jackets. Ullmark is viewed as the Sabres goalie of the future but will go back to Rochester during the Sabres’ bye week and could return after the break. Ullmark could see an extended run with the Sabres if they elect to trade Robin Lehner like they are rumoured to.
Burakovsky was expected to be in the lineup last night but was a late scratch due to an illness. The Capitals elected to keep him back in Washington for Friday’s game, recalling Travis Boyd from Hershey (AHL) to serve as their reserve forward.
