Ullmark was returned to AHL Rochester on Friday, the Olean Times Herald reports.
EDGE Analysis
Ullmark was called up when Anders Nilsson fell ill, but now that Nilsson is healthy and starting Friday against Detroit, Ullmark has been returned to the Amerks. The young Swedish netminder has a bright future and remains a core piece of the Sabres' long-term plans, but they will stick with Nilsson and Robin Lehner for the season. Despite being called up four times this season, Ullmark has yet to play a single minute for the Sabres.

Ullmark was recalled from AHL Rochester on Thursday.
EDGE Analysis
Ullmark's promotion comes as Anders Nilsson is dealing with an illness. It seems unlikely that Ullmark will suit up against Detroit on Friday, as coach Dan Bylsma will probably give the starting nod to Robin Lehner. In the minors this season, Ullmark has posted a 15-13-1 record with a 3.02 GAA and will likely head back to Rochester once Nilsson is healthy enough to play.

The Sabres assigned Ullmark to AHL Rochester on Saturday.
EDGE Analysis
Ullmark's demotion indicates Robin Lehner (illness) will likely be available for Monday's game against the Stars. The 23-year-old backstop will probably remain in the minors for the remainder of the 2016-17 campaign unless the Sabres are once again in need of extra depth at goaltender due to injury.

Ullmark is getting called up to back up Anders Nilsson against the Flyers, Paul Hamilton of WGR 550 reports.
EDGE Analysis
Ullmark has been just average for AHL Rochester, sporting a 14-13-1 record with a 3.06 GAA and .906 save percentage. He's the undisputed starter for the Amerks with 28 appearances, but they've struggled defensively as a team and their 123 goals allowed is the worst mark in the North Division. Still, the former Swedish League goalie of the year is seen as a top prospect within the organization and has the talent to be an NHL-caliber starter down the road. Robin Lehner (flu) is not expected to be out for long, but the Sabres do have back-to-back road games coming up, so if Lehner's situation does not get better there may be a chance Ullmark makes an appearance. He appeared in 20 games for the Sabres the previous season but has yet to do so this season.

Ullmark was reassigned to AHL Rochester on Friday.
EDGE Analysis
Hopefully Ullmark is getting those frequent traveler miles, as he's been subjected to multiple call-ups and demotions this season. Of course, his league level has been directly linked to the health of Robin Lehner. Most recently, the starting backstop's been dealing with a hip injury, but evidently it's not serious enough to keep Ullmark in tow as a complementary fill-in option to Anders Nilsson. Sabres fans hoping to see Ullmark make his season debut will just have to wait it out.

Ullmark has been called up from AHL Rochester.
EDGE Analysis
Ullmark will serve as the backup to Anders Nilsson on Thursday with Robin Lehner sitting out to rest his injured hip. Lehner is reportedly almost ready to suit up again, however, so Ullmark's stay with the big club will likely be short-lived.

Ullmark was reassigned to AHL Rochester on Saturday, Joe Yerdon of NHL.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Anders Nilsson reportedly will start in goal against the Panthers on Saturday afternoon, and No.1 netminder Robin Lehner is expected to return from his illness for the second game of a back-to-back Sunday. This leaves no room for Ullmark, but he'll almost assuredly get consistent work in the minors.

Ullmark was recalled from AHL Rochester on Monday.
EDGE Analysis
Ullmark will slot into the backup role for the Sabres with Robin Lehner (illness) out of the lineup. Barring a lengthy ailment, it is unlikely Ullmark will spend too much time away from Rochester where he has posted a 3-1-0 record with a .926 save percentage. Long term, the 23-year-old could challenge Lehner for the starting role, but at least for this season, will primarily feature in the AHL.

Ullmark was assigned to the AHL on Saturday.
EDGE Analysis
Ullmark was called up to serve as backup for Friday's preseason game, but with Robin Lehner and Anders Nilsson both healthy, the Sabres are sending Ullmark back to Rochester. He'll have to fend off Jason Kasdorf for the starting job, but it's likely his job to lose. The former Swedish League goalie of the year is a young, high-upside goalie who could stick with the big club as early as next season. For now, he'll continue to ply his trade in the AHL.

Ullmark was recalled from AHL Rochester on Friday.
EDGE Analysis
Ullmark had just been sent to the minors following his working the second half of a back-to-back set against Carolina on Wednesday. But now, he rejoins starting backstop Robin Lehner and Anders Nilsson on the active roster ahead of the final preseason game Friday. Ullmark will watch Lehner make the final start of the exhibition, but it now appears that the Sabres could have all three goalies available for the season opener against the Habs next Thursday.
