How Leevi Merilainen could get three starts this week over Linus Ullmark

Two games into the 2025-26 season, the Ottawa Senators are 1-1-0 overall. The Senators won 5-4 against the Tampa Bay Lightning on Thursday and fell 6-2 last night against the Florida Panthers.

While Shane Pinto has been a huge bright spot with scoring four goals in the first two games, goaltending has been a concern along with the penalty kill. Linus Ullmark has started both games on the season for Ottawa, but they haven't been the best starts.

Ullmark has allowed in 10 goals through the first two games with an .808 save percentage.
