It was an exciting time for the Ottawa faithful to pick up a 5-1 win over Florida on home ice last night. Somewhat pushed aside with all the Brady Tkachuk noise was that Linus Ullmark had to be helped off…
Ottawa Senators goaltender Linus Ullmark exited early in the third period with a lower-body injury during a 5-1 win over Florida. Head coach Travis Green stated that Ullmark would undergo further evaluation, according to a report by Bruce Garrioch of the Ottawa Sun. Before leaving, Ullmark stopped 17 of 18 shots, and backup Samuel Ersson closed out the final 16:25 of the game.
Ullmark has enjoyed a strong start to the season, winning seven of his first eight games with a .945 save percentage. The Senators face potential depth concerns if Ullmark misses extended time, with Ersson struggling in his starts this season and Jonas Johansson serving as the third-string option in the AHL.
