Matt EllisThe Buffalo Sabres have announced that they have come to terms with veteran forward Matt Ellis on a two-year, two-way deal.

Ellis, who could compete for a job with the Sabres, is expected to start the season off with the Rochester Americans of the AHL and be the captain of that squad.

Just a few days ago, Sabres GM Darcy Regier expressed interest in re-signing Ellis to provide the franchise with depth and leadership in Rochester.

Ellis is an eight-year veteran of the NHL, with five of those years coming in Buffalo.

No financial details were released at the time of the announcement.

    Love his heart, but I agree with you Kevin. I don't think Gerbe's cut out for the NHL.
