Top Senators News

  • Senators' Nick Jensen: Adds assist in win

    Jensen logged an assist and two blocked shots in Sunday's 3-2 win over the Stars.

    Jensen has contributed three helpers and eight blocked shots over his last four contests. The 34-year-old defenseman isn't always consistent on offense, but he's playing in a top-four role that allows him to get some looks at times. For the season, he has two goals, 14 assists, 52 blocks, 50 shots on net, 39 hits and a plus-15 rating over 42 appearances.

  • Senators' Nick Cousins: Collects assist

    Cousins produced an assist and three shots on goal in Sunday's 3-2 win over the Stars.

    Cousins has been limited to two assists over his last eight outings. The 31-year-old doesn't have to score to be productive -- he also has 10 PIM and 16 hits in that span. He's been a bottom-six fixture for the Senators this season, earning five goals, eight assists, 57 shots on net, 66 hits, 35 PIM and a minus-1 rating through 40 appearances. That's a level of production that only fantasy managers in deep formats will appreciate.

  • Senators' Shane Pinto: Records helper in win

    Pinto logged an assist in Sunday's 3-2 win over the Stars.

    Pinto now has three points over his last two outings after picking up just one assist in the previous seven games. The 24-year-old center often plays more than his third-line role would suggest -- he led all Senators forwards with 21:50 of ice time Sunday, his second straight game over the 20-minute mark. He's produced 13 points, 63 shots on net, 32 hits, 25 blocked shots and an even plus-minus rating through 34 appearances. Should Pinto continue to see more ice time, his production will likely keep improving in the second half of the campaign.

  • Senators' Jake Sanderson: Posts helper Sunday

    Sanderson notched an assist, three shots on goal, four blocked shots and a plus-2 rating in Sunday's 3-2 win over the Stars.

    Sanderson has earned three helpers over his last four games. This was his first point at even strength since Dec. 21 versus the Canucks, when he had a goal and two assists. The defenseman continues to play a massive role for the Senators, racking up two goals, 22 assists, 87 shots on net, 85 blocked shots and a minus-14 rating over 42 outings this season.

  • Senators' Claude Giroux: Snags assist in Sunday's win

    Giroux produced an assist and two shots on goal in Sunday's 3-2 win over the Stars.

    Giroux helped out on Tim Stutzle's go-ahead goal in the second period. After a recent four-game point drought, Giroux racked up four assists during this weekend's back-to-back set. He's now at nine goals, 19 helpers, 81 shots on net, 38 hits and a plus-5 rating over 42 appearances this season. Giroux's offense remains strong at age 37, and he's unlikely to falter too much while playing in a top-six role.

  • Senators' Drake Batherson: Generates assist in win

    Batherson recorded an assist in Sunday's 3-2 win over the Stars.

    Batherson has a goal and an assist over his last two contests following a four-game point drought. He set up a Josh Norris tally in the second period of Sunday's victory. Batherson continues to add strong offense with a physical edge, earning 38 points, 90 shots on net, 66 hits and a minus-3 rating through 42 outings this season in a top-six role.

  • Senators' Matthew Highmore: Gets first goal of season

    Highmore scored a goal on two shots and added two hits in Sunday's 3-2 win over the Stars.

    Highmore has played in the last two games in place of Noah Gregor (lower body). The 28-year-old Highmore's tally Sunday was the game-winner, which was his second career game-winning goal. He has never exceeded 12 points or 46 games played in an NHL campaign, so fantasy managers likely won't need to turn to him at any point in 2024-25.

  • Senators' Josh Norris: Scores in Sunday's win

    Norris scored a goal on four shots, doled out seven hits and added two PIM in Sunday's 3-2 win over the Stars.

    Norris ended a five-game goal drought with the second-period tally, which tied the contest at 1-1. He has been limited to two points over six outings in January. The center's slowdown on offense is a bit concerning even though he's maintained a prominent role in the Senators' lineup. He's contributed 15 goals, nine assists, 83 shots, 112 hits, 28 PIM and a minus-10 rating over 42 appearances this season.

  • Senators' Tim Stutzle: Tallies again Sunday

    Stutzle scored a goal and added two hits in Sunday's 3-2 win over the Stars.

    This was Stutzle's second game in a row with a goal after going five contests without one. The 22-year-old put the Senators ahead 2-1 in the second period. He's gone 14 games without a multi-point effort, earning four goals, three assists and 28 shots on net in that span. For the season, the center is at 14 goals, 43 points, 84 shots, 70 hits and a plus-6 rating over 43 appearances.

  • Senators' Leevi Merilainen: Wins again Sunday

    Merilainen stopped 24 of 26 shots in Sunday's 3-2 win over the Stars.

    Merilainen started both halves of a back-to-back this weekend and won both games. It's telling that the Senators trusted a 22-year-old goalie, making just his eighth career appearance, more than Anton Forsberg despite the crowded part of the schedule. Merilainen has delivered when called upon this season, going 4-2-0 with a 2.34 GAA and a .913 save percentage while often facing moderately tough opponents. This was also his first home outing in 2024-25. The Senators have not revealed their goaltending plans for Tuesday's road game versus the Islanders at this time.

  • Senators' Cole Reinhardt: Unavailable Sunday

    Reinhardt (upper body) won't play versus Dallas on Sunday, Murray Pam of Full Press Hockey reports.

    Reinhardt will miss at least one game after being hurt in Saturday's 5-0 win over Pittsburgh. He has one goal, one assist and 29 hits in 12 NHL appearances this season. Zack MacEwen will replace Reinhardt in Sunday's lineup.

  • Senators' Leevi Merilainen: Starting again Sunday

    Merilainen will patrol the home crease versus Dallas on Sunday, per TSN 1200 Ottawa.

    Merilainen will play again after posting a 29-save shutout win against Pittsburgh on Saturday. He has a 3-2-0 record with a 2.42 GAA and a .911 save percentage across five NHL outings this season. Dallas ranks 10th in the league with 3.22 goals per game in 2024-25.

  • Senators' Adam Gaudette: Ends slump Saturday

    Gaudette notched an assist and a plus-2 rating in Saturday's 5-0 win over the Penguins.

    The helper ended a nine-game slump for Gaudette. It appears the magic has worn off for the 28-year-old forward, who is still routinely in the lineup but has now gone 14 games without a goal. He's produced a career-best 13 tallies with five assists, 51 shots on net, 32 hits and a plus-6 rating over 40 appearances, but volatile production won't make him a strong choice to fill out the depth of a fantasy roster.

  • Senators' Jake Sanderson: Helps out on power play

    Sanderson produced a power-play assist and two blocked shots in Saturday's 5-0 win over the Penguins.

    Sanderson has three helpers over his last six games, and they've all been on the power play. The 22-year-old defenseman is up to 23 points (15 on the power play), 84 shots on net, 81 blocked shots, 25 hits and a minus-16 rating over 41 appearances. He's on track to surpass his career-best total of 38 points from last season, but he's experiencing steady progression rather than a major breakout.

  • Senators' Josh Norris: Picks up power-play helper

    Norris logged a power-play assist, four shots on goal and five hits in Saturday's 5-0 win over the Penguins.

    Norris ended a four-game slump with the helper on Drake Batherson's second-period tally. It's been 16 games without a multi-point effort for Norris, who has six points, 30 shots and 36 hits in that span. The center is at 23 points, 79 shots, 105 hits, 35 blocked shots, 26 PIM and a minus-11 rating over 41 contests in a top-six role this season.

  • Senators' Tyler Kleven: Opens scoring in blowout win

    Kleven scored a goal, logged four hits and added two PIM in Saturday's 5-0 win over the Penguins.

    This tally ended an 18-game slump on offense for Kleven, and it also set the tone for a blowout win. The 23-year-old defenseman has been a fixture on the Senators' third pairing, but he brings little to the table on offense. He has three points, 36 shots on net, 54 hits, 44 blocked shots, 12 PIM and a minus-1 rating through 41 appearances, so most fantasy managers can look elsewhere for help on the blue line.

  • Senators' Drake Batherson: Tallies on power play in win

    Batherson scored a power-play goal on three shots and added four PIM in Saturday's 5-0 win over the Penguins.

    Batherson ended a 10-game goal drought with his second-period tally. In that span, he had just three assists, and none of them had been in January, so he needed this goal to get back on track. The 26-year-old winger is up to 14 goals, 23 helpers, 19 power-play points, 89 shots on net, 65 hits and a minus-4 rating through 41 appearances.

  • Senators' Tim Stutzle: Nets goal in Saturday's win

    Stutzle scored a goal, added two PIM, logged three hits and went plus-2 in Saturday's 5-0 win over the Penguins.

    Stutzle had the Senators' fifth goal of the contest, which chased Alex Nedeljkovic. The tally was Stutzle's first in six games, and he had been limited to one helper over his previous five outings. The 22-year-old has had few cold spells this season, racking up 13 goals, 29 assists, 83 shots on goal, 68 hits and a plus-5 rating through 41 appearances.

  • Senators' Claude Giroux: Three helpers in Pittsburgh

    Giroux notched three assists, one on the power play, in Saturday's 5-0 win over the Penguins.

    It was the first three-point performance of the season for the 37-year-old, and Giroux had managed only a goal and an assist in his prior seven contests. He's on the downslope of his career and isn't a point-per-game player any longer, but Giroux still has a respectable nine goals and 27 points through 41 appearances this season.
