Rotowire
Comrie stopped 24 of 27 shots in Sunday's 4-1 loss to Columbus. The fourth goal was an empty-netter in the third period.

The 29-year-old has gone 3-4-0 with a 3.05 GAA and a .901 save percentage this season, but there's no question he's been trending in the wrong direction of late.

Jets' Eric Comrie: Allows four goals in loss
Rotowire

It was a back-and-forth game, but the Golden Knights struck last on a Brett Howden goal with 4:05 left in the third period.
