Ottawa Senators News

Forsberg is in the starter's crease at the Senators morning skate.

Forsberg picked up his third straight loss stopping 30 of 34 shots (.900 SV%) his last time out in a 4-3 loss to Tampa Bay. Cam Talbot returns to the bench Thursday but will only back up Forsberg who has posted a 3-5-0 record with a 3.18 GAA and .909 SV%. He draws the tough task of taking on Vegas who leads the NHL in wins, points and least amount of goals allowed per game (1.73).

Forsberg led the Senators onto the ice for warmups.

Forsberg made 53 saves on 57 shots in the Senators 5-3 loss to the Panthers on Saturday. It was an outrageously busy night for Forsberg, who kept his team in it until the very end. Ottawa is in the bottom-10 in the NHL in shots against, so he'll be busy most nights. He comes into Tuesday at 3-4-0 with a 3.04 GAA and .913 SV% in seven games.

Ullmark will start Tuesday in Pittsburgh.

Ullmark was unbeatable his last time out, shutting out the Columbus Blue Jackets 4-0 off a 30-save performance. He has been as close to perfect as can be this season, leading the NHL in wins with a 6-0-0 record to go along with his 4th-placed .945 SV% and 5th-placed 1.70 GAA. He takes on a struggling Pittsburgh Penguins team who has last their last four games while only scoring more than one goal once during that time.

Forsberg won his third straight start with a 20 save (.909 SV%) 6-2 victory over Arizona his last time out. He has been steady this season, pitching a .904 SV% and 2.83 GAA while starting all but one of Ottawa's games. His Senators will host the Wild at home Thursday who is coming off a 3-1 win over Montreal and is looking to lower and improve their 31st-ranked goals against per game (4.67).

Ullmark will start Tuesday vs. the Stars.

Ullmark will get the nod for the third straight game after leading the Bruins to victory his last time out with his weakest effort of the year in a 24 save (.889 SVS%) 4-3 victory over the Minnesota Wild. It seems as if Ullmark has taken the starting job between the Bruins' pipes for the time being after starting the season undefeated (4-0-0) while posting an impressive .929 SV% and 2.23 GAA. He receives the tough task of taking on the 4-1-1 Dallas Stars who are coming off their first regulation loss Monday after dropping their game 4-2 to Ottawa.
