On the other side, the Senators enter this game with a 29-24-4 record, looking to bounce back despite key injuries. Brady Tkachuk, Nick Cousins, Josh Norris, and Shane Pinto are all sidelined, forcing Ottawa to shuffle their lineup. That means players like Tim Stützle, Claude Giroux, and David Perron will have to step up offensively. On defense, Jake Sanderson and Artem Zub will play crucial roles in shutting down Winnipeg’s attack. In net, Linus Ullmark is expected to get the start, aiming to give the Sens a fighting chance.
One interesting note: Ottawa will again go with 11 forwards and seven defensemen , a strategy they used in their previous game. Meanwhile, Winnipeg is keeping an eye on some players who appeared on the medical report after Monday’s game, leading to the recall of Jaret Anderson-Dolan from the AHL for extra depth.
With the Jets fighting to maintain their dominance and the Senators battling through adversity, this game has all the makings of a high-energy showdown. Expect fast-paced action, tough battles along the boards, and some highlight-reel plays. Puck drop is at 7 p.m. ET —don't miss it!
