  • Senators' Shane Pinto: Scores again Tuesday

    Pinto scored a goal on two shots in Tuesday's 3-0 win over the Kraken.

    Pinto has three goals over his last three outing after going 15 games without a point. This may be the turning point of his season, though he still has a lot to do to prove himself to fantasy managers. The center has four goals, two assists, 40 shots on net, 26 hits and a minus-5 rating over 23 appearances this season, primarily in a third-line role.

  • Senators' Shane Pinto: Breaks out of slump

    Pinto scored twice on three shots, blocked three shots and went plus-3 in Friday's 3-0 win over the Hurricanes.

    Prior to Friday, Pinto had gone 15 straight games without a point, including 14 since he returned from an undisclosed injury that sidelined him in late October and early November. This could be the game that gets the center back on track. He now has three tallies, five points, 34 shots on net, 24 hits, 16 blocked shots and a minus-6 rating over 21 appearances. Pinto had a 20-goal season in 2022-23 and put up 27 points over just 41 appearances last year, so it's fair to think he can turn things around even if he remains on the third line.

  • Senators' Shane Pinto: Ice-cold on offense

    Pinto has not recorded a point over 14 games since he returned from an undisclosed injury Nov. 12.

    Pinto was held off the scoresheet again in a 5-1 win over the Ducks, though he led the Senators' forward group with 19:29 of ice time in the blowout win. He's seen steady middle-six usage and remains part of the power-play mix amid his scoring struggles. The 24-year-old now has three points, 31 shots on net, 23 hits and a minus-9 rating over 20 appearances. Pinto flashed 50-point potential last season, earning 27 points in 41 games with an average of 18:07 of ice time. He's seen a reduced role this year, but that doesn't explain the totality of his slump.

  • Senators' Shane Pinto: Says he'll play against Toronto

    Pinto (undisclosed) said Monday that he'll suit up for Tuesday's game against the Maple Leafs, Bruce Garrioch of Postmedia reports.

    Head coach Travis Green indicated Monday that Pinto could return to game action Tuesday, and Pinto confirmed his availability following Monday's practice session. The 23-year-old has missed the last eight games due to an undisclosed injury. Prior to his absence, he logged a goal, three points, four hits, two blocked shots and a minus-3 rating while averaging 17:31 of ice time.

  • Senators' Shane Pinto: Could return Tuesday

    Head coach Travis Green said Monday that Pinto (undisclosed) could play Tuesday against Toronto, TSN 1200 Ottawa reports.

    Pinto has missed the last eight games due to an unspecified injury, but he appears to be trending toward a return. However, Green also said Friday that Pinto was in the mix to return Saturday against the Bruins, and the 23-year-old was held out for that matchup. Once Pinto is cleared to return, he'll likely have a middle-six role and see time on the power play.

  • Senators' Shane Pinto: Not ready to return

    Pinto (undisclosed) won't play Saturday versus the Bruins, per TSN 1200 Ottawa.

    Pinto will miss his eighth straight game. He was in consideration to play Saturday, so his absence may not last much longer. Once he returns, he'll likely fill a middle-six role and feature on the power play. The Senators' next game is Tuesday in Toronto.

  • Senators' Shane Pinto: May play Saturday

    Coach Travis Green said Friday that Pinto (undisclosed) could play Saturday in Boston, per TSN 1200 Ottawa.

    Pinto has sat out the last seven games after he was injured Oct. 22 in Utah. The 23-year-old pivot has a goal and two assists in six games this season. Look for Zack Ostapchuk to come out of the lineup if Pinto returns.

  • Senators' Shane Pinto: Will remain out Thursday

    Pinto (undisclosed) will remain sidelined for Thursday's game against the Islanders, TSN 1200 Ottawa reports.

    Pinto was on the ice during Thursday's morning skate, but he didn't take any regular rotations and is expected to remain sidelined for a seventh consecutive game. However, he's now skated on back-to-back days and appears to be close to returning to game action. The 23-year-old's next chance to suit up will be Saturday against Boston.

  • Senators' Shane Pinto: Close to returning

    Pinto (undisclosed) skated Wednesday and hasn't been ruled out for Thursday's game against the Islanders, Bruce Garrioch of Postmedia reports.

    Pinto has missed Ottawa's past six games because of the injury. He has a goal and three points in six outings this season. When Pinto is ready to return, he will likely serve in a middle-six capacity, which would probably push Zack Ostapchuk to the fourth line or out of the lineup entirely.

  • Senators' Shane Pinto: Deemed week-to-week

    Pinto (undisclosed) won't play Sunday against Colorado and is considered week-to-week, per TSN 1200 Ottawa.

    Pinto will miss his second straight game and could be out significantly longer than that. He has collected one goal, three points, 10 shots on net and four hits across six appearances this season. Due to Pinto's absence, Cole Reinhardt will probably remain in the lineup versus the Avalanche.

  • Senators' Shane Pinto: Ruled out for Friday

    Pinto (undisclosed) has been ruled out for Friday's game against the Golden Knights, Steve Lloyd of TSN 1200 Ottawa reports.

    Pinto missed Thursday's practice for an undisclosed reason and will be unavailable for at least one matchup after being deemed a game-time decision. Cole Reinhardt will suit up for Ottawa in Pinto's absence. Pinto's next chance to return will be Sunday against Colorado.

  • Senators' Shane Pinto: Game-time call for Friday

    Pinto (undisclosed) is expected to be a game-time decision for Friday's game against Vegas, TSN 1200 Ottawa reports Thursday.

    Pinto didn't participate in Thursday's practice. He has a goal and three points in six appearances this season. He hasn't missed a game yet in 2024-25, and he recorded two hits and one block in 17:22 of ice time in Ottawa's 4-0 win over Utah on Tuesday. If Pinto, David Perron (personal) and Artem Zub (concussion) are all unavailable, then Ottawa will need to recall someone from the minors or dress just 11 forwards and six defensemen Friday.

  • Senators' Shane Pinto: Pots goal in win

    Pinto scored a goal on three shots in Thursday's 3-1 win over the Panthers.

    Pinto's tally at 10:42 of the first period stood as the game-winner. The center had a hat trick in the preseason finale and appears to have some momentum to begin 2024-25. The 23-year-old was fifth among Senators forwards with 15:59 of ice time in their Opening Night game, so fantasy managers shouldn't be too concerned about his third-line role at even strength. Pinto has 50-point potential if he produces at a similar rate to last season.

  • Senators' Shane Pinto: Hat trick Saturday

    Pinto scored three goals, including one on the power play and one shorthanded, while adding an assist in Saturday's preseason win over the Canadiens.

    The 23-year-old potted his first two goals inside the first six minutes of the first period, staking the Senators to a lead they wouldn't relinquish. Pinto should be Ottawa's No. 3 center when everyone is healthy, but with Tim Stutzle (upper body) potentially banged up to begin the regular season, Pinto could see top-six shifts out of the gate. Pinto missed half the 2023-24 campaign due to a suspension, but he was productive once he got on the ice, with nine goals and 27 points in 41 games.

  • Senators' Shane Pinto: Staying in Ottawa

    Pinto signed a two-year, $7.5 million contract with the Senators on Tuesday.

    After some concern that Pinto would request a trade or be priced out of the Senators' budget, the two sides were able to get a bridge deal done. Pinto had 27 points, including six on the power play, over 41 contests in 2023-24. The 23-year-old should be a consistent top-six presence in 2024-25, and he could be poised for a breakout year. He will be a restricted free agent at the conclusion of the contract.

  • Senators' Shane Pinto: Four points in win

    Pinto tallied a goal and three assists in Wednesday's 6-2 victory over the Sabres.

    Pinto grabbed assists on three of the Senators' five first-period goals before capping the scoring with an empty-netter in the third. The 23-year-old center had cooled off coming into Wednesday's contest, tallying just one goal and three points in his previous nine games. Following his season-high four-point effort, Pinto's up to eight goals and 25 points through 30 games this season.

  • Senators' Shane Pinto: Puts up pair of assists

    Pinto notched two assists, three shots on goal and a plus-2 rating in Thursday's 4-3 overtime loss to the Kings.

    Pinto helped out on tallies by linemates Brady Tkachuk and Drake Batherson. This was Pinto's third multi-point effort in the last six games -- he has two goals and six assists in that span. The center is up to 18 points, 65 shots on net, 20 hits, 20 blocked shots and a plus-9 rating through 20 appearances. Pinto should continue to offer ample fantasy value while filling a top-line role.

  • Senators' Shane Pinto: Two points in Friday's loss

    Pinto scored a power-play goal and added an even-strength assist in Friday's 5-3 loss to the Coyotes.

    With the Senators in an early 3-0 hole, Pinto sparked a rally by helping to set up Vladimir Tarasenko for Ottawa's first tally late in the first period. Pinto then tied things up late in the second, but the Sens' surge fizzled in the final frame. It's Pinto's fourth multi-point performance in the last 12 games, a stretch in which the 23-year-old center has racked up five goals and 13 points.
