Ullmark exited Ottawa's previous game in the third period with an undisclosed injury. He will not dress on Tuesday against the Detroit Red Wings, but Senators' Head Coach Travis Green insists that they are not concerned and that Ullmark will be back in the crease soon. The 33-year-old Swedish goalie has a 1.20 GAA and .949 SV% through two appearances this season (2-0-0).
Ullmark was excellent in his first game of the season, saving 27 of 29 shots (.931 SV%) in a 3-2 win over the Toronto Maple Leafs, and will return to the crease on Monday against his former team, the Boston Bruins. The 33-year-old Swedish goalie had an inconsistent 2025-26 season with Ottawa, posting a 2.73 GAA and .891 SV% in 49 games (28-12-8), and will need to improve in 2026-27 if the Senators hope to return to the postseason. Ottawa enters Monday's contest as slight -115 road favourites against a Bruins team off to a 2-1-0 start.
Despite Ullmark playing outer-worldly through the first three games of Ottawa's opening series, the Senators find themselves down 3-0 and on the edge of elimination on Saturday for Game 4. Ullmark has been the Senators' best player, posting a .933 SV%, 2.02 GAA and 0-3-0 record. He will look to keep Ottawa's season alive at home Saturday, as they host the Carolina Hurricanes, who have outscored them 7-3 in the series.
Ullmark has never won a playoff series as the goalie of record, and the odds are against him with the Senators trailing the Carolina Hurricanes 2-0. That said, the 32-year-old Swedish goalie has been exceptional, saving 73 of 78 shots (.936 SV%) through two games (0-2-0). The Senators will need Ullmark at his best again on Thursday in Game Three, entering the action as -118 home favourites in an attempt to narrow their series deficit to 2-1.

Ullmark stopped 22 of 23 shots in the Senators' 5-1 win over the Panthers on Thursday. Ullmark is playing his best hockey at the right time of year, having gone 4-1-0 with a 2.20 GAA and .913 SV% in five April starts. This afternoon he'll start a pivotal matchup vs. the Islanders, who he struggled against way back in October. In his only start vs. the Islanders this season, Ullmark gave up five goals on 23 shots in a 5-4 loss.
Currently sitting in the second Wild Card position in the Eastern Conference, the Senators control their own fate and will attempt to inch closer to securing a ticket to the postseason on Thursday, with Ullmark tending the twine against the Florida Panthers. The 32-year-old Swedish goalie had an abysmal showing in a game last week against the Panthers, exiting late in the first period after allowing five goals on 16 shots (.688 SV%) in an eventual 6-3 loss. That said, he has rebounded in four games since (3-1-0), posting a 2.50 GAA and .903 SV%. The Senators enter Thursday's contest as sizeable -284 home favourites against an injury-depleted Panthers team on a three-game losing streak (0-2-1).
The Senators currently occupy the final Wild Card spot in the Eastern Conference, but remain in an ultra-tight battle, and will turn to Ullmark on Tuesday against the Tampa Bay Lightning. The 32-year-old Ullmark was serviceable on Sunday, saving 25 of 28 shots (.893 SV%) in a pivotal 6-3 win over the Carolina Hurricanes. That said, he has battled some inconsistencies lately, losing three of his last five (2-2-1), posting a concerning 3.70 GAA and .876 SV%. The Senators enter Tuesday's contest as -127 home favourites against a Lightning team that lost 4-2 last night to the Buffalo Sabres.
Ullmark turned aside 21 of 22 shots in the Senators win over the Sabres on Thursday. The win snapped a brief two-game losing skid for Ullmark, who has won seven of his last 11 starts (7-3-1) while posting a 2.64 GAA and .897 SV%. This afternoon he'll face a Minnesota team that has los six of their last 10 (4-5-1) while averaging just 2.7 goals per game.
Ullmark will look to rebound when he returns to the crease on Thursday against his former team, the Buffalo Sabres, after a brutal performance in Tuesday's 6-3 loss to the Florida Panthers, being pulled late in the first period after allowing five goals on 16 shots (.688 SV%). The Senators will hope Ullmark's recent blip was a one-off, considering he entered that game having posted a stellar 2.18 GAA and .918 SV% in his previous six games (4-1-1). The Senators enter Thursday's contest as -117 home favourites against a Buffalo Sabres team coming off a 4-3 win over the New York Islanders.
The Senators' late-season battle for a Wild Card spot continues on Tuesday, with Ullmark tending the twine against the Florida Panthers. The 32-year-old Ullmark had an abysmal outing against Florida earlier this season, allowing six goals on 27 shots (.778 SV%) in a 6-2 loss, but he should be hopeful for a better result against a dejected and injury-depleted Panthers team. The Senators enter Tuesday's contest as -171 road favourites.
As the Senators continue their late-season push for a playoff spot, they will turn to Ullmark to tend the twine on Thursday against the Pittsburgh Penguins. The 32-year-old Swedish goalie was terrific in his previous game, saving 33 of 35 shots (.943 SV%) in a crucial 3-2 win over the Detroit Red Wings. Since returning from a lengthy personal leave of absence in late January, Ullmark has a 2.31 GAA and .902 SV% in 13 games (9-2-2). The Senators enter Thursday's contest as -145 home favourites against a Penguins team that has been outscored 11-3 in their last two games (0-2-0).
Ullmark will start the tail-end of Ottawa's back-to-back tonight after getting the night off on Monday. Ullmark secured the victory in his last outing, stopping 12 of the 14 shots he faced in a 5-2 win over the Maple Leafs on Sunday. The 32-year-old carries a 22-10-7 record and an .885 SV% into Tuesday night's must-win game in Detroit, where the Sens enter action at +105 on the money line.
