The Ottawa Senators are urgently looking for a new starting goalie.
After two top goalies were traded on Wednesday, the team feels even more pressure. Jacob Markstrom went to New Jersey and Darcy Kuemper is now in Los Angeles. So, Steve Staios is working hard to get Linus Ullmark from the Boston Bruins, according to Bruce Garrioch of the Ottawa Citizen. They also looked into Juuse Saros from the Nashville Predators.
Senators’ Renewed Efforts:
Sources say the Senators have reached out again to see if they can get Ullmark to help their struggling team . Talks between Ottawa and Boston have picked up speed. This isn’t their first attempt; they tried but failed to get him before the March deadline.
Fans might think this move shows how serious the Senators are about improving their game.
Interestingly, while focusing on Ullmark, they haven’t forgotten about other potential options like Saros. It’s clear they’re leaving no stone unturned in their quest for a reliable goalie.
What do you think? Will getting Ullmark change things for the Senators?
