Linus Ullmark Records First Shutout As Senator
1 week agoOttawa Senators goaltender Linus Ullmark posted his first shutout of the season on Tuesday with a 27-save effort against Toronto in a 3-0 win. It's his ninth career shutout, which ties Eddie Lack for the seventh-most among Swedish netminders. The shutout came at a great time, as Ullmark probably needed a confidence boost after finishing three consecutive starts with a save percentage below .900. He has had a rollercoaster ride with the Senators so far, going 4-4-0 with a 2.51 goals-against average and a .904 save percentage. However, Ullmark has now picked up two consecutive wins, and Thursday's meeting with the offensively challenged Philadelphia Flyers gives him a good opportunity to continue on the winning path.
