Senators' Jake Sanderson: Out for remainder of road trip
Sanderson (lower body) will miss at least the next two games, starting with Monday's matchup against Boston, Jackson Starr of the Senators' official site reports.
Sanderson's injury isn't as bad as the Senators first thought, but he has returned to Ottawa and will miss the remainder of the team's season-opening road trip. It's unclear when the 24-year-old blueliner will be ready to return. He logged only 4:29 of ice time in Saturday's 3-2 win over Toronto. Cameron Crotty will replace Sanderson in Monday's lineup against the Bruins.

Senators' Linus Ullmark: Defending road crease Monday
Ullmark will start Monday's road game against Boston, Senators on-air host Jackson Starr reports.
Ullmark drew the Opening Night start in Toronto on Saturday and turned aside 27 of 29 shots in a 3-2 victory. He'll remain in the crease for Monday's matchup and will attempt to continue his winning ways against the Maple Leafs, who have lost two of their first three regular-season games.

Senators' Andre Burakovsky: Shifts to IR
Burakovsky (upper body) was placed on injured reserve Monday, according to Bruce Garrioch of Postmedia.
In a corresponding move, Ottawa recalled blueliner Jorian Donovan from AHL Belleville on Monday. Burakovsky will miss his second straight game when the Senators visit Boston on Monday. He is eligible to be activated whenever he is healthy, but it's unclear when he will be ready to return.

Senators' Jorian Donovan: Summoned from AHL
Donovan was recalled from AHL Belleville on Monday.
Donovan hasn't earned a point in two minor-league appearances this season. With Jake Sanderson (lower body) dealing with an injury, the 22-year-old Donovan will provide Ottawa with some additional defensive depth.

Senators' Claude Giroux: Off to strong start
Giroux delivered two assists in a 3-2 win over Toronto on Saturday.
The 38-year-old veteran of 1,013 NHL games looked sharp out of the gate Saturday. Giroux is on the third line and will see duty on the second power-play unit. He's settled into a groove where he delivers about 50 points, including double digits on the power play, while continuing to win at least 500 faceoffs. Last season, Giroux's efficiency was excellent (63.1 percent) with 504 wins, and he delivered 600 wins (61.5 percent) the year before. He still has fantasy value in his tank.

Senators' Michael Amadio: Sweet goal in season opener
Amadio scored a goal Saturday in a 3-2 season-opening win over Toronto.
He knotted the game 2-2 in the second off a deft saucer pass from Tim Stutzle that went over a sprawling Morgan Rielly right to the winger, who redirected it past Sergei Bobrovsky. Amadio is fresh off the best season of his career, with 15 goals, 20 assists and 105 hits in 81 games, and he finds himself on a top-nine line with Shane Pinto and Claude Giroux. He could be a smart waiver grab in banger leagues.

Senators' Stephen Halliday: First career game winner
Halliday scored a goal in a 3-2 victory over Toronto on Saturday.
Halliday jammed in a rebound from the side of the net just as a Senators power play ended in the third period. It stood as the winner. Halliday has just 30 games under his NHL belt, but he's earned a role as the Sens' fourth-line pivot. It was his first career game-winning goal.

Senators' Linus Ullmark: Strong when game on line
Ullmark made 27 saves in a 3-2 win over Toronto on Saturday.
Ullmark was strong when he needed to be, especially in the second period when he stretched to get a toe on a great shot by William Nylander to keep the score knotted 2-2. Ullmark's overall stat line last year was mid, but he sparkled with a 14-4-3 record, 2.43 GAA and .904 save percentage in his final 21 starts after returning from a mental health leave. He's the key to the team's success this season post-Brady Tkachuk.

Senators' Thomas Chabot: Statement game as new team captain
Chabot scored a goal and added an assist in Saturday's 3-2 win over the Maple Leafs.
It was a statement game for the new Senators captain. Chabot put the Sens up 1-0 late in the first period on rebound. And he stepped up when Jake Sanderson (lower body) left the game early and didn't return. Chabot himself has a long history of injury, and he's played a full season just once (80 games in 2024-25) in 10 seasons as a regular. Still, he's capable of a 40-point campaign with some power-play production, and that's valuable in a lot of formats.

Senators' Jake Sanderson: Battling lower-body issue
Sanderson departed Saturday's game versus the Maple Leafs due to a lower-body injury, Julian McKenzie of The Athletic reports.
Sanderson is set for further evaluation Sunday, and the team will know more in the next few days. The defenseman was never seemingly fully healthy after dealing with the injury throughout the preseason, but this is the first time the Senators have put a label on the issue. His status for Monday's game in Boston remains up in the air.

Senators' Jake Sanderson: Exits Saturday's game
Sanderson (undisclosed) exited Saturday's game against Toronto and won't return to the contest.
Sanderson was questionable for Saturday's tilt, and he ultimately logged just 4:29 of ice time before his night was done. The 24-year-old appeared to aggravate an injury, per Elliotte Friedman of Sportsnet, so Sanderson's exit might be related to his previous issue.

Senators' Linus Ullmark: Set to face Maple Leafs
Ullmark is expected to guard the road goal against Toronto on Saturday, according to Julian McKenzie of The Athletic.
Ullmark is poised to get Ottawa's season opener after being the first goalie off the ice at the morning skate. He has gone 8-5-1 with a 2.93 GAA and an .898 save percentage in 16 career regular-season outings against the Maple Leafs. Toronto (1-1-0) has scored four goals in two games this campaign.

Senators' Jake Sanderson: Good to go
Sanderson (undisclosed) will play against Toronto on Saturday, per Jackson Starr of the Senators' official site.
Sanderson had been dealing with an undisclosed injury, but he will be in the lineup for the start of the 2026-27 campaign. He registered 14 goals, 54 points, 147 shots on net and 128 blocked shots over 67 appearances for Ottawa during the 2025-26 regular season. Sanderson is expected to skate on the top pairing and work on the first power-play unit in Saturday's contest.

Senators' Adam Nemec: Erupts for five points in OHL win
Nemec scored a goal and added four assists in OHL Sudbury's 7-1 win over Niagara.
Nemec's five points led the charge in Sudbury's win Friday. The 18-year-old was a third-round selection of the Senators back in June. This was his first game of the OHL campaign, but after he had 35 points in 31 regular-season outings last year, he will likely continue to pile on points throughout the season.

Senators' Jake Sanderson: Could return Saturday
Sanderson (undisclosed) might be available for Saturday's clash with the Maple Leafs after returning to practice Friday, Graeme Nichols of The Hockey News reports.
Sanderson appears to be trending in the right direction after missing several days of practice. The fact that the Senators sent Hoyt Stanley down to the minors also seems to indicate that Sanderson will be ready to suit up. If given the all-clear, the blueliner should take his spot on the top power-play unit.

Senators' Warren Foegele: Set to play Saturday
Foegele (undisclosed) will play in Saturday's Opening Night matchup against the Maple Leafs, Bruce Garrioch of Postmedia reports.
Foegele was placed on the injured non-roster list after dealing with an undisclosed issue for most of training camp. However, he's practiced recently and was on the top line during Friday's practice session. The 30-year-old appeared in 68 regular-season games between Los Angeles and Ottawa last year, recording 13 goals, four assists, 74 hits, 19 blocked shots and 18 PIM while averaging 13:46 of ice time.

Senators' Hoyt Stanley: Sent to minors
Stanley was loaned to AHL Belleville on Friday.
Stanley signed a three-year, entry-level deal with the Senators in March, but he'll be sent to the minors a day before the team's Opening Night matchup against Toronto on Saturday. He should have an opportunity to carve out a role in the NHL, while his demotion makes it seem likely that Jake Sanderson (undisclosed) will be available for the start of the regular season.
