Senators' Thomas Chabot: Closing in on return
Chabot (upper body) was a full participant in Monday's practice in Vegas and is nearing a return to the lineup, according to Bruce Garrioch of Postmedia.
While Chabot was a full participant in Monday's practice, Garrioch noted that the 29-year-old skated on an extra defensive pairing, so a decision on his availability for Tuesday's game against the Golden Knights won't be made until after the morning skate. Regarding Chabot's outlook going forward, head coach Travis Green said, "I'm not sure if he's going to go tomorrow, but he's definitely close to playing. We'll see." If he ends up sitting out Tuesday, Chabot's next opportunity to return to the lineup will be in Los Angeles on Thursday.

Senators' Michael Amadio: One of each Saturday
Amadio scored an empty-net goal on two shots and added an assist in Saturday's 7-4 win over the Rangers.
Amadio snapped a five-game slump with the effort. The 30-year-old forward has settled into his usual third-line role to start the year, offering depth scoring and a little physicality. He has three goals, three assists, 13 shots on net, 10 hits and a minus-2 rating over 12 appearances, a pace that puts him on track for a career year if he can keep it up.

Senators' Jake Sanderson: Three-point performance Saturday
Sanderson scored a goal on two shots and added two assists in Saturday's 7-4 win over the Rangers.
Sanderson delivered his strongest offensive performance of the season, and this was the second time he posted a multi-point effort over his last three appearances. The 24-year-old blueliner missed eight games from Oct. 5 to Oct. 17 with a lower-body injury, but he hasn't lost time getting back on track and has five points in his three games since returning. His combination of playmaking ability and prominent responsibilities on offense makes him an appealing fantasy option, especially since he's coming off back-to-back seasons with 50-plus points.

Senators' Jonas Johansson: Earns win in Senators debut
Johansson stopped 24 of 28 shots in Saturday's 7-4 win over the Rangers. He also recorded an assist on an empty-net goal.
Johansson relied on the Senators' scoring prowess to get the win in his 2026-27 debut, as he posted a single-game save percentage of just .857 while allowing four goals. His fantasy appeal remains dependent on earning additional starts and improving his efficiency, but as of now, he profiles primarily as a depth option behind Samuel Ersson due to the absence of Linus Ullmark (lower body).

Senators' Tim Stutzle: Extends goal streak to three games
Stutzle scored a goal on two shots and added three hits in Saturday's 7-4 win over the Rangers.
Stutzle scored for the third consecutive game, finishing a passing sequence early in the first period to give Ottawa a two-goal advantage. The German center continues to serve as one of the Senators' primary offensive drivers, combining strong scoring instincts with substantial playmaking responsibilities. His prominent role at even strength and on the power play supports a high fantasy ceiling, particularly while his finishing remains consistent. His consistency in the first few weeks of the season has been stellar, as he has cracked the scoresheet in all but two of Ottawa's first 12 games, giving him 16 points (eight goals, eight helpers) in that span.

Senators' Dylan Cozens: Scores, assists vs. NYR
Cozens scored a goal on two shots and added an assist in Saturday's 7-4 win over the Rangers. He also recorded five hits.
Cozens found the back of the net for the first time this season after converting a deflection in the second period, but before he had assisted on Drake Batherson's second tally. The two-point performance was encouraging following his slow start offensively, and his continued involvement alongside Ottawa's skilled forwards provides opportunities for improved production. However, he'll need to be more consistent as a scoring threat before he becomes a dependable fantasy option in standard leagues. He has only five points through 12 appearances -- a below-average return for a top-six forward who also sees time on the power play.

Senators' Drake Batherson: Scores hat trick Saturday
Batherson scored three goals on three shots and added an assist in Saturday's 7-4 win over the Rangers. His third goal was an empty-netter, and he also added four hits and two blocked shots.
Batherson recorded the third hat trick of his NHL career, opening the scoring before adding another tally early in the second period. His four-point performance highlighted his ability to contribute as both a scorer and playmaker, and his involvement in Ottawa's top-six attack continues to provide significant fantasy upside. The veteran winger remains a valuable option across most formats, especially when he's generating consistent scoring opportunities, and his added value through physicality stats is a boost in leagues that reward those contributions. This four-point performance extended Batherson's point streak to four games, during which he's recorded seven points, and he's now at 12 points (seven goals, five assists) in his first 12 appearances this season.

Senators' Kurtis MacDermid: Hits waivers
MacDermid (upper body) was placed on waivers Saturday, according to Bruce Garrioch of Postmedia.
MacDermid started the 2026-27 campaign on Ottawa's non-roster injured reserve list. Now that he's healthy, he could see time with AHL Belleville if he clears waivers.

Senators' Jonas Johansson: Starting Saturday
Johansson will get the nod for Saturday's home matchup against the Rangers, per Bruce Garrioch of Postmedia.
After being summoned from AHL Belleville on Thursday, Johansson will make his Ottawa debut. He has a 3-1-1 record, a 2.92 GAA and a .912 save percentage in five minor-league appearances. The Rangers (7-4-1) rank 15th in the NHL this campaign with 3.08 goals per game.

Senators' Philip Tomasino: Racks up four points in AHL win
Tomasino scored a goal and added three assists in AHL Belleville's 7-3 win over Wilkes-Barre/Scranton on Friday.
Tomasino is off to a strong start this season with three goals and six assists over eight games for Belleville. The forward has never logged more than 38 games in an AHL season. Continued success on offense could earn him a call-up to Ottawa later in 2026-27.

Senators' Tyler Boucher: Two goals in Belleville's win
Boucher scored twice in AHL Belleville's 7-3 win over Wilkes-Barre/Scranton on Friday.
Boucher has produced three goals and two assists over eight games this season. The 23-year-old winger had 26 points in 47 regular-season outings in 2025-26. He has yet to make his NHL debut, but he'll need to show more offense in the AHL to be a serious contender for a call-up.

Senators' Jordan Spence: Get's first goal of season
Spence scored his first goal of the season Thursday in a 6-2 loss to San Jose.
The young defender has just three points, including the one he scored Thursday, in 11 games. Spence has talent, and he's coming off a career year (seven goals, 24 assists; 79 games). The return of Jake Sanderson and Artem Zub from injury Tuesday stabilized the back end of the Sens, so Spence might flourish under a reduced burden.

Senators' Tim Stutzle: Three-game, four-point streak
Stutzle notched a goal in Thursday's 6-2 loss to San Jose. He had five shots.
Stutzle is on a three-game, four-point scoring streak (two goals, two assists). But the shot bump-up is notable -- he had five shots total in his previous four games. Stutzle's 15 points (seven goals, eight assists) in 11 games so far put him on pace for more than 100 points this season if he stays healthy.

Senators' Samuel Ersson: Still looking for first win of season
Ersson made 22 saves Thursday in a 6-2 loss to the Sharks.
Ersson is the go-to guy in Ottawa with Linus Ullmark (lower body) on the shelf. The netminder is still looking for his first win of the season. Ersson is 0-3-0 with a 4.59 GAA and .835 save percentage.

Senators' Adam Nemec: Adds three points in OHL win
Nemec scored a goal and added two assists in OHL Sudbury's 4-3 win over North Bay on Thursday.
Nemec earned his fourth multi-point effort in seven games. He's up to three goals, 12 assists and 10 shots on net over seven outings. Nemec's profile is shaping up as that of a playmaker, though it would be positive to see him increase his shot volume throughout 2026-27.

Senators' Linus Ullmark: Out 1-2 weeks
Ullmark (lower body) is expected to miss the next 1-2 weeks, Claire Hanna of TSN reports Thursday.
Ullmark was placed on injured reserve after suffering the injury during Wednesday's game against Florida, so we already knew that he'd miss at least a week, and it seems he's not expected to miss much more than that. The 33-year-old has a 7-1-0 record, 1.33 GAA and .945 save percentage in eight appearances this campaign. Jonas Johansson has been called up from the minors, and he's set to be Samuel Ersson's understudy for Thursday's home game against San Jose.
