Comrie is expected to start on the road against Tampa Bay on Saturday, per Paul Hamilton of WGR Sports Radio 550.

EDGE Analysis

Comrie has a 4-3-0 record, 3.29 GAA and .898 save percentage in seven starts this season. He's surrendered at least three goals in each of his last five games. Tampa Bay has earned a reputation as being one of the league's best teams after reaching the Stanley Cup Final in each of the last three campaigns, but the Lightning have gotten off to a mediocre start. They have a 6-4-1 record and rank 16th in the league offensively with 3.18 goals per game.

Comrie made 18 saves in Wednesday's 6-3 win over the Penguins.

EDGE Analysis

Things weren't looking good for Comrie when Jake Guentzel beat him on a Pittsburgh power play to give the visitors a 3-1 lead eight seconds into the third period, but the Penguins' tired legs caught up to them after that. Buffalo dominated from that point forward against a Pittsburgh team that was playing its second game in as many nights, and Comrie came away with the win to improve to 4-3-0. Backup Craig Anderson has outplayed Comrie when called upon, but Comrie has gotten the starting nod in seven of Buffalo's first 10 games.

Comrie was the first goalie to exit the ice at Wednesday's game-day skate, Lance Lysowski of The Buffalo News reports, indicating he'll be between the home pipes versus Pittsburgh.

EDGE Analysis

Comrie has given up three or more goals in five of his six appearances this season, resulting in a 3-3-0 record and 3.34 GAA. At this point, it seems the 27-year-old netminder has supplanted Craig Anderson as the preferred option in goal for the Sabres, though he likely will be on a short leash.

Comrie allowed three goals on 18 shots in Monday's 8-3 win over the Red Wings.

EDGE Analysis

Comrie snapped a two-game skid with this win, but it was far from a pretty effort. He can thank Tage Thompson for putting up a six-point effort to give the Sabres an easy victory. Comrie is now 3-3-0 through six games, and he's given up at least three goals in five of them. The 27-year-old still appears to have the edge over Craig Anderson for starts in goal, but Comrie will need to be a bit more convincing to maintain that advantage.

Comrie was the first goalie off the ice at the morning skate, Lance Lysowski of The Buffalo News reports. indicating he will get the nod Monday at home against Detroit.

EDGE Analysis

Comrie has lost his past two outings, including a 31-save effort in last Thursday's 3-2 defeat at the hands of the Canadiens. He has a 2-3-0 record this year with a 3.41 GAA and a .909 save percentage through five appearances.

Comrie made 31 saves Thursday in a 3-2 loss to Montreal.

EDGE Analysis

The first goal was a tough break -- Comrie stopped Brendan Gallagher's shot, but it deflected off defender Owen Power's skate and into the net. And the third was a tip by Gallagher that was impossible to stop. Even the middle goal was a one-timer that Comrie had little chance to snag. He and Sabres will have ups and downs this season, but there's talent here and Comrie may surprise in deep formats.

Comrie will be between the pipes when the Sabres host the Canadiens on Thursday, per Bill Hoppe of the Olean Times Herald.

EDGE Analysis

Comrie will look to bounce back from Tuesday's loss in Seattle, when he allowed five goals on 24 shots. The 27-year-old netminder had been solid in his previous three starts, evident by a .908 save percentage. A strong outing Thursday would help establish Comrie as the starter in Buffalo over Craig Anderson.

Comrie yielded five goals on 24 shots in Tuesday's 5-1 loss to the Kraken.

EDGE Analysis

Comrie finally faced a shot total under 30, but he wasn't very effective with the lighter workload. The Kraken struck twice early, and that was all they needed for the win. The 27-year-old has now allowed 14 goals across four contests while posting a 2-2-0 record. His usage suggests he's usurped Craig Anderson for the top spot in the Sabres' goaltending hierarchy, though it's possible the two netminders play in more of a tandem if both happen to go cold at the same time. The Sabres' next game is at home Thursday versus the Canadiens.

Comrie was the first goalie off the ice at the morning skate, Lance Lysowski of The Buffalo News reports, indicating he will start Tuesday on the road against Seattle.

EDGE Analysis

Comrie racked up 86 saves on 91 shots in wins over Edmonton and Calgary last week to improve to 2-1-0 on the season. He has a 2-0-0 record versus the Kraken in his career despite giving up six goals on 53 shots.

Comrie stopped 40 of 43 shots in Thursday's 6-3 win over the Flames.

EDGE Analysis

Comrie became the first goalie in Sabres history to post 40-plus saves while winning consecutive games. He was impressive Thursday, and the Sabres jumped out to an early lead to make his job easier. The 27-year-old is 2-1-0 with nine goals allowed on 128 shots through three appearances, and it looks like he might have the edge over Craig Anderson for the starting job in goal. The Sabres' road trip continues in Vancouver on Saturday, so it'll be interesting to see which goalie gets the nod for that contest.
