Sogaard will make his first start in three games Monday after taking over in relief for Joonas Korpisalo in the Senators' 7-2 loss to New York on Saturday. The 23-year-old towering netminder has struggled in his first three appearences this season, posting a 1-1-0 record, 4.55 GAA and .841 SV%. He will take on the Nashville Predators, who have lost three of their last four games and are 18th in the NHL in goals per game (2.98).

Cousins was the recipient of a controversial hit from Arizona's Jason Zucker, which led to a three-game suspension. The 30-year-old scrappy centre has struggled to produce offensively in 2023-24 with only two goals, three assists, 20 PIMs, 63 SOG and a -10 plus/minus in 37 games. With Cousins cleared from concussion protocol after missing 10 games, his return to the lineup is now just a matter of conditioning.

Ullmark will be back between the pipes for Wednesday's game against the Hurricanes after Jeremy Swayman got the nod against the Jets on Monday. Ullmark allowed four goals on just 21 shots in Saturday's game against the Canadiens, though he still cruised to an easy victory thanks to his teammates spotting him nine goals. The 2022-23 Vezina Trophy winner hasn't quite lived up to the lofty standards he set last season, but he's still been more than effective with a 14-5-2 record and .912 SV% to his name. He draws a tough assignment on Wednesday as the Bruins play host to the mighty Hurricanes.

Hamonic returned to the lineup from a two-game absence on Sunday, but only played 5:23 before exiting the contest, subsequently missing Tuesday's contest. Hamonic has five points (2G / 3A) in 40 games this season and will not play on Thursday.

Hamonic suffered the injury in the first period and has been ruled out for the remainder of the contest. We should expect to receive an update on the injury following the completion of Sunday's game.

Hamonic will return to the Senators' lineup for the tail-end of their back-to-back as Erik Brannstrom will sit in his place. Hamonic has two goals and three assists in 39 games this season.

Sogaard allowed six goals on 33 shots in the Senators loss to the Avalanche on Tuesday. It was a rough season debut for Sogaard, who was 8-5-2 with a 2.48 GAA and .920 SV% when he was recalled from the AHL. This afternoon he'll face a Flyers team that lost 7-4 to the Avalanche yesterday, snapping a five-game winning streak--they've averaged 3.7 goals per game during that six-game stretch.

Pinto was suspended for 41 games for activities relating to sports wagering but will play Sunday in Philadelphia. With no morning skate, it's unclear who Pinto will replace in the lineup or which line he will skate on to start. The 2019 second-round pick (No.32 overall) had 20 goals and 15 assists (35 points) in 82 games a season ago.

Amadio missed the Golden Knights' game Thursday vs. New York due to an upper body injury and has been officially placed on the Injured Reserve Friday. The 27-year-old is in his third full season with Vegas and on pace for his best statistical season with six goals, 17 points, 58 SOG, and a +5 plus/minus through 42 games played.

With Pinto's 41-game suspension for activities relating to sports wagering nearing an end, the Senators have signed the 23-year-old to a one-year $775,000 contract. The final game of his suspension is on Saturday, and he will be eligible to return to the lineup for Sunday's game against the Philadelphia Flyers. The Senators forward had 35 points (20G / 15A) in 82 games last season.

Amadio will be unavailable on Thursday due to an upper-body injury. Amadio played the last three games for the Golden Knights, registering a -2 plus/minus rating, and two shots while being held off the scoresheet.

Travis Hamonic will be a healthy scratch on Thursday, allowing Bernard-Docker to re-enter the lineup. Bernard-Docker last played on January 11th and saw only 7:54 time-on-ice while firing two shots on goal.

Hamonic will be a healthy scratch on Thursday, allowing Jacob Bernard-Docker to draw back into the lineup. Hamonic has been a regular in the lineup for the Senators this season and playing 15:28 in their last game, recording three hits and a -1 plus/minus rating.
