Sabres' Robin Lehner: Returns to starter's net Tuesday
Lehner will be the starting goalie for Tuesday night's showdown with the Predators.
Analysis:
There was a considerable amount of disagreement regarding whether Lehner or Linus Ullmark would get the nod during the day, but it turns out the Sabres' No. 1 minder is completely over his concussion symptoms and will be good to go Tuesday. After a strong beginning of February, Lehner has not looked great in his last couple starts, allowing nine goals and showing a .864 save percentage over two straight losses. It might not get better either, as the Predators come in to Tuesday's game having won three in a row and averaging 3.58 goals per game in February.
