Ellis made 37 saves in a 5-0 win over Columbus on Thursday.
It was Ellis' first start and just his second appearance for Buffalo since Feb. 3, and he stepped up with his first career shutout. Ellis' 37 saves are tied for the third-most by a rookie netminder in a shutout in Sabres history. Linus Ullmark stopped 40 and Martin Biron made 39 saves. Ellis is slotted into the No. 2 spot behind Ukko-Pekka Luukkonen in Buffalo since Alex Lyon is out for at least a week due to a lower-body injury.
