Any chance Ellis could play his way into taking Ward's job?

Or just not going to happen, regardless of how poorly Ward plays?

I can't see it happening. Too small a sample size to get excited about. What are your other options? Markstrom just got called up in FLA. Lehner may be a good short term option in OTT if this Anderson injury keeps him out any length of time. The Hiller owner may have an itchy trigger finger. Allen has proven to be worthy, and is worth a pick up as soon as Halak gets hurt again.
