Forsberg will search for his third straight victory as the Senators are +129 road underdogs against the Vancouver Canucks, who are coming off a 4-1 loss to the Philadelphia Flyers in their last game, five days ago.

Ullmark will start Tuesday's game against the Wild.

Ullmark will be back between the pipes on Tuesday after Jeremy Swayman got the nod in Saturday's 2-1 overtime defeat to the Rangers. Ullmark has endured a relatively cold stretch of late, registering a 3-3-0 record and an .893 SV% across his last six starts. He did collect a win his last time out over the Islanders despite surrendering four goals on 37 shots. He draws an enticing matchup on Tuesday with the Bruins being -225 home favourites over the Wild.
