Kipper between the pipes

By RANDY SPORTAK, SUN MEDIA

Flames head coach Brent Sutter is going with Miikka Kiprusoff in net against the Sabres in Buffalo tonight.

Buffalo will counter with Ryan Miller.

No word yet on whether Kiprusoff will play both sides of back-to-back games this weekend or whether the Flames will give Curtis McElhinney the start Saturday against the Toronto Maple Leafs.

The Flames are going with the exact same lineup and line combinations.

Buffalo will be without Mike Grier (groin), whose spot in the third line will be taken and Patrick Kaleta and Adam Mair will draw into the lineup.

Former Flame defenceman Toni Lydman is still out with a groin injury.
