Bust out your snowshoes, Nathan Lieuwen.
The Rochester Americans goaltender was recalled by the Buffalo Sabres on Wednesday to serve as a backup for Jonas Enroth.
Lieuwen's recall - just the second since being drafted in 2011 - comes in response to the injury Michal Neuvirth suffered in Tuesday's win over the San Jose Sharks.
Josh Gorges was placed on injured reserve to make room for Lieuwen, who compiled a 1-4 record in his first stint with the big club.
