Kanata, ON (WGR 550) -- Mikael Tellqvist gets his first start as a Sabre tonight in Ottawa. It breaks Patrick Lalime's streak of nine straight starts. In his only action with Buffalo, Tellqvist played 14 minutes in Philadelphia making three saves and letting in one goal. His last start was February 19th vs Atlanta. He won 4-3 in a shootout making 22 saves. This season he's 7-5-1 with a 2.89 goals against and .905 save percentage. He's not worried about it being almost a month in between starts.
The Sabres are dressing Andrew Peters for the injured Adam Mair. He hasn't played in ten games and has dressed just once in the last 18. Sitting out will be Teppo Numminen, Matt Ellis, Clarke MacArthur and Nathan Paetsch.
