Neuvirth will be in the crease Friday against the Oilers. After suggesting a day earlier that Jhonas Enroth would get the start against the Oilers, coach Ted Nolan reversed course at Friday's morning skate, instead granting Neuvirth his third straight start. With the Sabres playing a back-to-back over the weekend, both Neuvirth and Enroth were likely to get one nod apiece anyway, but Neuvirth will benefit from getting the more favorable draw of the two. The Oilers have dropped four in a row and will be playing the second game of their own back-to-back set, providing Neuvirth will a good shot at evening his record at 3-3-1.
