Sogaard (undisclosed) has been given the green light to suit up for AHL Belleville, TSN 1200 Ottawa reports Tuesday.
Sogaard's return provides the Sens with some organizational depth, but he is unlikely to be promoted to the NHL any time soon. In his three appearances for Belleville this year, the 24-year-old Sogaard has posted a record of 0-1-1 with a 3.80 GAA and an .830 save percentage.

Senators' Mads Sogaard: Dealing with undisclosed injury
Rotowire
Sogaard is being re-evaluated for an undisclosed injury suffered against AHL Toronto on Sunday, Bruce Garrioch of Postmedia reports.
Sogaard was involved in a collision in the net after playing just 3:45 of ice time in Sunday's contest. With Hunter Shepard recalled to Ottawa, the organization's goalie depth could be limited if Sogaard is forced to miss significant time. Still, for fantasy managers, the netminder's absence shouldn't be a big factor, as he is unlikely to see much in the way of NHL starts even once healthy.

Senators' Mads Sogaard: Waived for AHL demotion

If he passes through waivers, Sogaard will provide the Senators with organizational depth between the pipes behind Linus Ullmark and Leevi Merilainen. The 24-year-old Sogaard has posted an 11-11-3 record with a 3.55 GAA and an .879 save percentage in 29 appearances with Ottawa over the last four regular seasons.

Senators' Mads Sogaard: Returned to AHL
Rotowire
Sogaard was reassigned to AHL Belleville on Thursday, per the NHL media site.
Over his two NHL appearances this season, Sogaard went 1-1-0 with a 5.22 GAA and .800 save percentage, most recently giving up four goals on 23 shots (.826 save percentage) in a 4-2 loss in Winnipeg on Dec. 28. The Senators activated Anton Forsberg (undisclosed) from injured reserve in a corresponding move.

Senators' Mads Sogaard: Downed by Jets
Rotowire
Sogaard stopped 19 shots in Saturday's 4-2 loss to Winnipeg.
Ottawa jumped out to a 2-0 lead early in the second period, but Sogaard couldn't keep the home squad grounded after that. The 24-year-old netminder was making his first NHL start this season with Linus Ullmark (back) unavailable and Anton Forsberg (lower body) on IR, so Leevi Merilainen will likely get the start Sunday in Minnesota.

Senators' Mads Sogaard: Tending twine Saturday
Rotowire
Sogaard was the first goaltender off the ice during the morning skate and is slated to patrol the visiting blue paint in Winnipeg on Saturday, TSN 1200 Ottawa reports.
Sogaard is 1-0-0 this season, despite allowing four goals on 17 shots in relief of Anton Forsberg on Oct. 14 versus the Kings, as the Senators held on for an 8-7 victory. Sogaard has played sparingly this season with six appearances in the AHL. He will face the Jets, who are averaging 3.69 goals per game in 2024-25.

Senators' Mads Sogaard: Promoted from AHL
Rotowire
The Senators recalled Sogaard from AHL Belleville on Friday.
The Senators are shy a couple of netminders as Linus Ullmark (back) and Anton Forsberg (undisclosed) are currently on the sidelines. Ottawa also recalled netminder Leevi Merilainen on Friday to give the team a pair of healthy goaltenders, if needed versus Winnipeg on Saturday. Sogaard was 0-3-1 with a 3.24 GAA and an .877 save percentage across six appearances with Belleville before his recall.

Senators' Mads Sogaard: Injured in minors
Rotowire
Sogaard was hurt playing for AHL Belleville on Sunday and was helped off the ice with an apparent lower-body injury, Steve Warne of The Hockey News reports.
Sogaard underwhelmed in his lone NHL appearance this season, conceding four goals on 17 shots in a wild win over the Kings on Oct. 14. While the news won't have an immediate impact on the Senators goaltending situation, Linus Ullmark (strain) is already dealing with an injury, which could force the team to use an EBUG behind Anton Forsberg versus Utah on Tuesday.

Senators' Mads Sogaard: Returned to AHL
Rotowire
Sogaard was assigned to AHL Belleville on Sunday.
Sogaard's demotion could bode well for the availability of Linus Ullmark (strain) ahead of Tuesday's road matchup against Utah. The 23-year-old Sogaard has occupied the backup role behind Anton Forsberg for the last three outings.

Senators' Mads Sogaard: Promoted from minors
Rotowire
Sogaard was brought up from AHL Belleville on Wednesday.
Sogaard's promotion doesn't bode well for the availability of fellow netminder Linus Ullmark (strain) ahead of Thursday's meeting with the Devils. Unfortunately for the 23-year-old Sogaard, there aren't any back-to-backs on Ottawa's immediate schedule, which likely means this stint in the NHL will be as a backup to Anton Forsberg.

Senators' Mads Sogaard: Sent down Tuesday
Rotowire
Sogaard was loaned to AHL Belleville on Tuesday.
Sogaard allowed four goals on 17 shots after coming on in relief for Anton Forsberg in Monday's 8-7 overtime win against the Kings. Sogaard being reassigned to the minors could be an indication that Linus Ullmark (strain) is close to returning. Sogaard will likely see significant playing time with AHL Belleville.

Senators' Mads Sogaard: Gets OT win in relief Monday
Rotowire
Sogaard stopped 13 of 17 shots after replacing Anton Forsberg early in the second period of Monday's 8-7 overtime win over the Kings.
Forsberg gave up three goals on nine shots before coming out of the game following a collision, per Elliotte Friedman of Sportsnet. While Sogaard didn't play much better after being called up earlier in the day and getting pressed into action immediately, the Senators scored seven of their goals while he was in the crease. Forsberg remained on the bench and appeared to be OK, and with Ottawa off until Thursday, Linus Ullmark (muscle strain) could be ready to return before Sogaard might get a chance to make his first NHL start of the season.

Senators' Mads Sogaard: Called up Monday
Rotowire
Sogaard was elevated from AHL Belleville on Monday under emergency conditions.
Sogaard's promotion certainly raises concerns that Linus Ullmark (undisclosed) won't be ready to suit up for Monday's game versus the Kings. Even with Sogaard joining the NHL roster, he's unlikely to feature between the pipes for the Senators, as Anton Forsberg would likely get the starting nod if Ullmark can't give it a go.

Senators' Mads Sogaard: Sent to AHL Belleville
Rotowire
The Senators sent Sogaard to AHL Belleville on Friday.
Sogaard is highly regarded by the Senators, but with Linus Ullmark and Anton Forsberg ahead of him on the depth chart, it makes sense to send him to the minors to get him playing time. Sogaard was 1-3-0 with a 4.05 GAA and an .859 save percentage in six regular-season appearances with the Senators last year. The Danish netminder was 18-9-3 with a 2.45 GAA and a .916 save percentage over 32 AHL appearances during the regular season in 2023-24.

Senators' Mads Sogaard: Slated to start Sunday
Rotowire
Sogaard is expected to start Sunday's road preseason contest versus Toronto, per TSN 1200 Ottawa.
Sogaard posted a 1-3-0 record with a 4.05 GAA and an .859 save percentage in six regular-season outings with Ottawa in 2023-24. He will probably begin the 2024-25 campaign in the minors. Dustin Tokarski, a training camp invitee on a professional tryout agreement, will be the backup for Sunday's contest.

Senators' Mads Sogaard: Signs two-year deal
Rotowire
Sogaard signed a two-year, $1.55 million contract with Ottawa on Monday.
Sogaard posted an 18-9-3 record with two shutouts, a 2.45 GAA and a .916 save percentage in 32 regular-season outings for AHL Belleville in 2023-24. The 23-year-old netminder also went 1-3-0 with a 4.04 GAA and an .859 save percentage in six NHL appearances with Ottawa last season. Sogaard will likely begin the upcoming season in the minors, as Linus Ullmark and Anton Forsberg are expected to open the year as the Senators' NHL goalies.

Senators' Mads Sogaard: Reassigned to AHL
Rotowire
Sogaard was demoted to AHL Belleville on Thursday.
Sogaard allowed 10 goals in his last four NHL starts combined before being sent down Thursday. Joonas Korpisalo and Anton Forsberg are both under contract through 2024-25, so Sogaard will likely continue to spend most of his time in the minors next season.

Senators' Mads Sogaard: Loses close game
Rotowire
Sogaard stopped 14 of 16 shots in Wednesday's 2-1 loss to the Ducks.
Sogaard didn't face a lot of traffic, but goals early in the second and third period ended up being enough to send him to the loss. The 23-year-old goalie is down to 1-3-0 with a 4.04 GAA and an .859 save percentage over six appearances this season. Anton Forsberg (lower body) was healthy enough to back up Wednesday and Joonas Korpisalo (illness) is also on the road trip, so Sogaard's stint with the big club may not last much longer.
