Nothing official from the Sabres yet, but WGR's Pat Malacaro is reporting Matt Ellis is at the ACC. Ellis is coming off of a 1g, 2a game versus the Adirondack Phantoms last night.

Edit: WGR is reporting he is officially in place of Stafford tonight

Never thought I'd see the day when Ellis notches a geno and two assists in one game. Well done buddy!

Bills Suck. Sabres suck. Phantoms suck.

The only thing going right in my life right now are my soccer and hockey men's leagues.

I hope he is, he was always one of the hardest working guys last season. Hopefully he'll inspire somebody.

Never thought I'd see Ellis in a Sabres uniform again. Good on him for proving me wrong...

Yup. Nice to see someone bring their lunch pail and work boots to a game for a change. He might not be flashy or have moves like Ovechkin, what he brings to the rink is a no quit attitude. Maybe they can bottle some of his sweat and make the other guys drink it? If half the guys on this team had a fraction of the heart Matty brings to the ice.... If only...

Doesn't he have to clear waivers also?

Not on an emergency call-up, so I'm hoping that's all it was.

Great callup!

He can't be an emergency callup as I understand the rule. The cutoff is 12 forwards / 6 defense / 2 goalies.

He should have to clear waivers on the way back to Portland, should he be sent back.

Hmm. I don't think he'd get claimed.

I liked the play of Matty tonight. Always a fan of a lunch pail gang type of player. Kind of wish I put in a bid on his game worn from last year now.

I still want a McCormick though!

I doubt that Ellis would get claimed on the way back down.

Post subject:  Re: Matt Ellis called up

If LA wanted to claim him, he would have been put through waivers to get sent here in the first place.

I thought they worked both ways.

Ellis is not subject to re-entry waivers.

Ellis had 8:58 minutes in 13 shifts on the ice last night at Toronto. He may have not made any noise, but his presence of a good work ethic and playing hard was felt.
