Ullmark did not play in Ottawa's final game before the Olympic Break due to an illness, but he will suit up Thursday against the Detroit Red Wings. Ullmark had only played two games since returning from a five-week personal leave, but played well, winning both games while posting a 1.50 GAA and .930 SV%. Ottawa needs a strong finish to the season to return to the playoffs, beginning by entering Thursday's game as -151 home favourites against a Red Wings team that defeated them 4-3 in their previous meeting.
