Ottawa Senators News

The Senators acquired Mike Amadio from the Kings for Christian Wolanin.

Amadio had a career-high 16 points (6G / 10A) in 58 games a season ago but was held without a goal and just two assists in his first 20 games of 2021. In Ottawa, he will likely fill Artem Anisimov's fourth-line/reserve role after Anisimov was placed on waivers.

The Sabres have activated Linus Ullmark (lower-body) from IR.

Ullmark has been out since February 25th but appears set to start Saturday vs. the Bruins. Ullmark was steady early in the season, going 5-4-2 with a 2.44 GAA and .919 SV% but the wheels have completely fallen off in his absence.

Eller (lower-body) will not play Thursday vs. the Devils.

Eller continues to battle through a lower-body injury and will miss his fifth consecutive game on Thursday. The Capitals have not provided many updates on Eller, so he remains day-to-day and questionable to play in the second half of their back-to-back tomorrow.

Eller (lower-body) will not play Monday in Buffalo.

Eller returned from a personal matter on Saturday but was hurt early in the first period and did not return. The Capitals have listed him as day-to-day and unavailable for Monday's game, so look for Washington to dress 11 forwards and seven defensemen.

"Pretty good chance" that Chabot will play on Tuesday.

Chabot has missed the last two games with an upper-body injury but should play Tuesday vs. Montreal. Chabot was on the ice for the Senators' morning skate and while he's officially considered a game-time decision, head coach DJ Smith said that there's a "pretty good chance" that he's back in. Chabot, who has three goals and six assists (nine points) in 17 games, would be replaced by Braydon Coburn if he can't go.
