He stopped all 10 shots he faced in two periods, then watched the third from the bench after a collision in his crease. Ottawa had not said by Tuesday morning whether he would start in Detroit tonight (7 p.m. ET).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It is the second injury scare in three days for a team that is 2-0-0 under new captain <a href=\"\/ca\/news\/nhl\/thomas-chabot-ottawa-senators-captain\/\">Thomas Chabot<\/a>. Jake Sanderson, Ottawa&#8217;s top defenceman, is already out.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Senators vs. Bruins | NHL Highlights | Oct 5, 2026\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/pIvOxFWKpTA?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Highlights: Senators 4, Bruins 1, 5 October 2026. Video: NHL on YouTube.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"how\">How the Ullmark injury happened<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Boston&#8217;s JJ Peterka went into him in the crease with 4:24 left in the second period. Thomas Chabot was called for tripping on the play, and Ullmark was slow to get up. Ottawa already led 4-0 on two goals from Tim St\u00fctzle and one each from Drake Batherson and Michael Amadio.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Coach Travis Green said afterwards that Ullmark had \u201ckind of tweaked something\u201d and called his removal a precaution, with another evaluation to come. Samuel Ersson played the third and made eight saves on nine shots. Ottawa&#8217;s shutout went at 3:30 of the period, when a James Hagens pass deflected in off a sliding Ersson.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The win still went to Ullmark, his second in two starts. He has 37 saves on 39 shots this season, and NHL.com noted he is the first Senators goalie to win the team&#8217;s first two games since Craig Anderson in 2016-17.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"goalies\">Who starts in goal for the Senators?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Ottawa carry two goalies, so Ersson is the cover. The 26-year-old Swede came from Toronto on 26 June for a 2027 fifth-round pick, ten days after Philadelphia had traded him to the Leafs. He played 80 games for the Flyers over the last two seasons. Every one of those June deals is on our <a href=\"\/ca\/nhl\/trade-tracker\/\">NHL trade tracker<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If Ullmark cannot dress, the Senators would need a goalie from their AHL club in Belleville to back up. If he misses more time, Ersson could face his old team in Thursday&#8217;s home opener against <a href=\"\/ca\/nhl\/teams\/philadelphia-flyers\/\">Philadelphia<\/a> (7 p.m. ET).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Ullmark, 33, won the Vezina and Jennings trophies with Boston in 2023 before the Bruins traded him to Ottawa. He played 93 of the Senators&#8217; 164 games over the last two seasons.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"sanderson\">Jake Sanderson injury: out for at least two games<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Sanderson lasted 4:29 of the season opener in Toronto. He played six shifts, aggravated a lower-body injury he first picked up in the final preseason game against Montr\u00e9al on 26 September, and took himself out during the first period.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Senators sent him back to Ottawa for tests. He missed Monday&#8217;s game in Boston, and the NHL&#8217;s status report has him out for at least the next two, tonight in Detroit and Thursday&#8217;s home opener. The Ottawa Citizen described him as out indefinitely, although Green said the tests showed something less serious than the club had feared.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">He is a big loss either way. Sanderson had 14 goals and 54 points in 67 games last season and played close to 25 minutes a night, more than any other Ottawa defenceman. Cameron Crotty took his place in Boston.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"injuries\">Ottawa Senators injuries<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table is-style-stripes\"><table class=\"has-fixed-layout\"><thead><tr><th class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">Player<\/th><th class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">Pos<\/th><th class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">Status<\/th><th class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">Latest<\/th><\/tr><\/thead><tbody><tr><td><strong>Linus Ullmark<\/strong><\/td><td>G<\/td><td>Day-to-day<\/td><td>Left Monday&#8217;s game after two periods, after a collision in the crease<\/td><\/tr><tr><td><strong>Jake Sanderson<\/strong><\/td><td>D<\/td><td>Out<\/td><td>Lower body; out for at least the next two games<\/td><\/tr><tr><td><strong>Andre Burakovsky<\/strong><\/td><td>LW<\/td><td>Injured reserve<\/td><td>Has not played this season<\/td><\/tr><tr><td><strong>Blake Montgomery<\/strong><\/td><td>LW<\/td><td>Injured reserve<\/td><td>Undisclosed<\/td><\/tr><tr><td><strong>Kurtis MacDermid<\/strong><\/td><td>LW<\/td><td>Injured reserve<\/td><td>Upper body<\/td><\/tr><tr><td><strong>Artem Zub<\/strong><\/td><td>D<\/td><td>Injured reserve<\/td><td>Knee injury from last spring&#8217;s playoffs<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The statuses are ESPN&#8217;s injury list.
