Description: Dan Ellis was pulled during Game 1 against Nashville on Wednesday after allowing four goals on 24 shots.
Yahoo Sports | Insight: Ray Emery was able to take over in the Ducks' net for the rest of the game. Ellis could not get the job done against his former team, so Ducks coach Randy Carlyle may opt for Emery in Game 2. | | |

Description: Dan Ellis is the probable starter for the Ducks for Game 1 against Nashville on Wednesday, as he was the first goalie off the ice during the morning skate.
Orange County Register | Insight: Both Jonas Hiller and Ray Emery are still dealing with injuries, so Ellis appears to be the go-to guy in net for now. Ellis played well in helping the Ducks secure a favorable playoff position over the final weekend, so he is a possibility in playoff pools until he struggles and one of the other goalies returns to health. | | |

Description: Dan Ellis made 43 saves in the Ducks' 3-1 win over Los Angeles on Saturday.

Description: Ellis earned his first win as a Duck Sunday, allowing two goals to the Avalanche. | Insight: Ellis allowed three in his previous Anaheim outing but has featured an improved GAA over his past six appearances.

Description: Ellis allowed just two goals to the Panthers Saturday but took the shootout loss. | Insight: Ellis was filling in on a night off for Dwayne Roloson, but it was the third time in four appearances that Ellis has allowed two goals or fewer. He also has six such games over his past 11 -- with just two of more than three allowed -- which makes it fair to wonder whether Ellis should get more time in the crease with Roloson sputtering lately.
