Anton Forsberg News
The Senators are coming off a 2-1 win over the Pittsburgh Penguins, snapping a seven-game losing skid, courtesy of Joonas Korpisalo, but they will switch to Forsberg between the pipes on Thursday. Forsberg has not played since March 1st, when he allowed four goals on 29 shots (.862 SV%) in a 5-3 loss to the Arizona Coyotes. That said, the Senators enter action as -120 road favourites against the Columbus Blue Jackets.
Forsberg will make the start on Friday against the Coyotes after all, as Joonas Korpisalo was a late scratch for the game due to illness. Forsberg got shelled his last time out, allowing four goals on 10 shots before being pulled in favour of Korpisalo in a 6-3 loss to the Capitals on Monday. Luckily for Forsberg, the Senators enter action on Friday as -186 home favourites against an Arizona Coyotes club riding an unprecedented 14-game losing skid (0-12-2).
Forsberg has started the last two games for the Senators and has been terrific lately, riding a four-game winning streak. The Swedish netminder has allowed three or fewer goals in four straight (4-0-0), posting a solid .917 SV%. The Senators are playing their best hockey of the season, with a 7-2-1 record in their last 10, and are -127 road favourites against a Washington Capitals club they defeated 6-1 in their only other matchup this season.
