Ottawa Senators News

Sogaard will likely make his first start of the season for a Senators club struggling immensely and is without goaltender Anton Forsberg. Sogaard has had a stellar campaign with the Belleville Senators of the AHL, posting a 2.48 GAA and .920 SV% in 16 games (8-5-2). The 23-year-old Sogaard spent a sizeable portion of the 2022-23 season in Ottawa but struggled to make an impact, posting a 3.32 GAA and .889 SV% in 19 appearances (8-6-3). The Senators, losers of 12 of their last 16 (4-12-0), are +104 home underdogs against a high-scoring Colorado Avalanche club that was defeated 4-3 by the Montreal Canadiens last night.

With news of Anton Forsberg being injured, Mads Sogaard was recalled Friday from Belleville (AHL). The 23-year-old last appeared with the Senators' in 2022-23 and was 8-6-3 with a 3.32 GAA and .889 SV%.

Amadio is good to go for Thursday's game after sitting out last night's game due to an illness. He is expected to join Nicolas Roy and Paul Cotter on Vegas' third line. Amadio has six goals and 11 assists in 39 games this season.

Amadio was a late scratch from the game with the Golden Knights only announcing his absence 30 minutes before puck drop. The Golden Knights will likely be forced to dress seven defensemen in Amadio's absence.

Ullmark was unable to finish Tuesday's game against the Arizona Coyotes, allowing three goals on 35 shots (.914 SV%) before leaving in overtime with a lower-body injury in an eventual 4-3 loss. Ullmark and Jeremy Swayman have almost exclusively split starting time this season, but if Ullmark is out of the lineup for any time, Swayman will take the reigns between the pipes.

Ullmark will be back between the pipes for the Bruins on Tuesday after Jeremy Swayman got the nod in last night's shootout loss to the Avalanche. Ullmark picked up his third consecutive win in his last time out, allowing three goals on 26 shots as the Bruins defeated the Lightning by a score of 7-3. He owns an impressive 13-5-2 record on the season along with a .915 SV% and a 2.74 GAA. The Bruins find themselves as -165 favourites in Arizona on Tuesday despite being on the tail-end of a back-to-back..
