Linus Ullmark hangs on for opening night win

Linus Ullmark allowed four goals on 25 shots in Thursday's 5-4 victory over the Lightning. After the Senators fell into an early hole, Ullmark settled in and made key saves while his team mounted a comeback to secure the win.

Fantasy Impact:

Ullmark enters the season as Ottawa's clear No. 1 goalie, but fantasy managers should not expect a massive workload. He was limited to 44 games last season due to durability issues, and the team plans to use backup Leevi Merilainen regularly to keep the veteran fresh. While Ullmark is a strong start whenever he is in the net, his owners will need to monitor Ottawa's goaltending deployment closely throughout the season.
