The Avalanche have recalled Martin Kaut from Colorado (AHL).

Kaut had a strong start to the AHL season, scoring two goals with one assist in his first two games. It earned him yet another NHL promotion, something he's done very little with in the past. He's had NHL stints for three straight seasons, compiling just two goals and one assist in 20 games. Ben Meyers was sent to the AHL to make room for Kaut.

Comrie will start Tuesday in Edmonton.

Comrie gets his second start in as many games after losing a tight 4-3 battle to Florida his last time out on the back of a 33-save effort. He will look to get the 1-1-0 Sabres back in the win column after they won their opening night showdown against Ottawa last week.

Samsonov will start against the Senators on Saturday.

Samsonov gets the start after Matt Murray left Saturdays practice early leaving the Maple Leaf's with only one goalie between on their active roster. The 25-year-old enjoyed a successful debut for Toronto Thursday, comfortably stopping 24 of 26 shots on way to a 3-2 victory over Washington. He will likely be the Leaf's workhorse if Murray’s injury turns out to be worse than originally expected.
