Ullmark stopped 14 of 16 shots in Saturday's 3-2 overtime win over the Bruins.
Ullmark got the win in his return to Boston, but most importantly, he put an end to his two-game losing skid. Ullmark was solid throughout the game, and the two goals he conceded game on a 15-second span early in the second period. Through eight appearances this season, Ullmark has gone 3-4-0 with an .890 save percentage. However, he's given up two of fewer goals in four of his last five outings, so he's been delivering solid results even if his save percentage doesn't really show it.

Senators' Linus Ullmark: Yields two goals in loss
Rotowire
Ullmark stopped 16 of 18 shots in Friday's 2-1 loss to the Rangers.
That's a tough-luck loss -- the Senators had 41 shots on net but only put one puck past Igor Shesterkin at the other end. Ullmark has allowed two or fewer goals in three of his five starts, but this was the first time he took a loss this year despite such an effort. He's now at a 2-3-0 with a 2.62 GAA and a .902 save percentage over six games (five starts). The Senators are back at home Saturday to face the Kraken. Anton Forsberg should be penciled in for that start since Ullmark is just over a week removed from recovering from a muscle strain, but his light workload Friday could allow him to start back-to-back contests.

Senators' Linus Ullmark: Fills in briefly Sunday
Rotowire
Ullmark stopped both shots he faced over 4:46 of game time in Sunday's 5-4 loss to the Avalanche.
Ullmark was called upon twice to take the crease while Anton Forsberg dealt with a skate issue in the second period. This will count as Ullmark's fourth appearance of the season. The 31-year-old is expected to resume his role as the Senators' No. 1 goalie after dealing with a muscle strain for a week. He'll likely get the nod at home Tuesday versus the Blues.

Senators' Linus Ullmark: Gives up five goals in return
Rotowire
Ullmark stopped 22 of 27 shots in Friday's 6-4 loss to the Golden Knights. The sixth goal was an empty-netter with 1:46 left in the third period.
Ullmark returned to the Senators' crease following a four-game absence due to a strain, but the 31-year-old netminder had a rough performance between the pipes and suffered a second straight defeat. He's posted a save percentage below the .850 mark in both defeats, so this is far from the start of the season Ullmark would've wanted. His next chance to bounce back will come against the Avalanche on Sunday, though it's unclear if he'll get the start.

Senators' Linus Ullmark: Won't dress Thursday
Rotowire
Ullmark (strain) will not be in the lineup against the Devils on Thursday, Bruce Garrioch of Postmedia reports.
While Anton Forsberg will get the starting nod versus New Jersey, it's Mads Sogaard who will suit up as the No. 2 option instead of Ullmark. Still, the fact that the 31-year-old Ullmark was on the ice for Thursday's game-day skate bodes well for him getting back into the lineup sooner rather than later. It's possible Ullmark will retake his spot between the pipes versus Tampa Bay on Saturday.

Ullmark has been dealing with a muscle strain in recent days, but it's encouraging that he'll be in the mix to return to action Thursday. Even if he isn't able to suit up against the Devils, it doesn't appear as though he'll be sidelined for a significant period of time.

Senators' Linus Ullmark: Dealing with muscular injury
Rotowire
Ullmark is dealing with a muscle strain ahead of Thursday's matchup with the Devils, Bruce Garrioch of Postmedia reports.
Ullmark's status for Thursday remains up in the air, though if he does miss any time it is not expected to be long. Anton Forsberg would likely step into the starting role due to Ullmark being on the shelf, though the 31-year-old Forsberg did get the hook against the Kings on Monday after giving up three goals on nine shots. Once back to 100 percent, Ullmark should reclaim his spot as the No. 1 netminder in Ottawa.
