Sabres' Robin Lehner: Out sick Tuesday

Lehner will not be available for Tuesday's game against the Flyers because he has come down with the flu.

Analysis:

Lehner's emotions ran high in Saturday's start; he swatted away 32 of 35 shots from the Jets and even tussled with Winnipeg defenseman Dustin Byfuglien. He's in the midst of a strong campaign as far as save percentage (.921), but the Sabres have helped him to just nine wins in 27 appearances. With the imposing backstop unavailable for this contest -- he should be considered day-to-day -- Anders Nilsson will draw the start.
