Season Overview
Playoff Likely
Ullmark's regression stalls Sens despite Tkachuk's breakout and improved scoring.
Ottawa is tracking slightly behind last season's pace at this point (81 pts vs 82 pts), despite a noticeable increase in goals scored per game (3.39 vs 2.96). The main reason for their stagnant performance is the regression of starting goaltender Linus Ullmark, whose save percentage has dipped significantly to .885 from .909 last season. This has offset an improved offense, which has also been impacted by the absence of forwards like Josh Norris (0 GP vs 53 GP last year). Brady Tkachuk has elevated his offensive game, projecting 59 points this season compared to 55 last year, providing a much-needed offensive boost.
