Matt Ellis hasn't resumed skating since sustaining a knee injury on Mar. 10 versus Ottawa, but coach Lindy Ruff said the Buffalo forward is making progress.
He is expected to miss his fourth straight game Wednesday with the ailment and should be considered day-to-day at this time. The Sabres will have only eight games left following Wednesday's contest, so he'll need to get better soon if he wants to play prior to the end of the regular season.
