Linus Ullmark — Complete Statistics - arsenalsports.ca

OTTAWA — Eight games is a small sample size but there’s no denying the Ottawa Senators are playing with confidence. The Senators improved to 6-2-0 after posting a 2-1 shootout win over the New York Islanders Thursday night. Perhaps most impressive, and not coincidental, is the play of Linus Ullmark who is 6-0 on the season with a .949 save percentage. Going back to last year, Ullmark is riding a 10-game winning streak. When mentioned to Ullmark, he shook his head as though it was strange to string wins from two seasons together. However, he said he’s feeling pretty good but still has a few things to clean up. “It’s always a battle every night,” admitted Ullmark. “Always a grind. Good players, good teams can’t really relax at any point during the game and that’s why I say it’s up and down.”It’s a far cry from the goaltender who started last season looking like he was battling every puck. Ullmark was 2-3-1 after six games last season having allowed 23 goals. He’s given up seven so far.

Linus Ullmark is flashing the form that won him a Vezina four years ago. And the Senators squad in front of him is thankful for that.

The Ottawa Senators have been one of the top stories of the season, as they own a 5-1-0 record and sit atop the Atlantic Division despite injuries to major players like Jake Sanderson, William Eklund and Artem Zub and after losing former captain Brady Tkachuk in a trade for only draft picks over the summer. Holding it all together has been goalie Linus Ullmark, who has gone 5-0 with a .948 save percentage and 1.27 goals against average, making him one of the early frontrunners for the Vezina Trophy.
