Status report
Hill starting in goal could be the likely potential lineup change from the Golden Knights’ 2-1 win at the Detroit Red Wings on Thursday. … Ellis in goal is the only expected change for the Sabres following their 5-2 win against the Columbus Blue Jackets on Friday, meaning McLeod, a forward, and Crevier, a defenseman, would each be scratched for a second straight game.
