With the recent addition of Jakob Chychrun, Jacob Larsson finds himself the odd man out of the Senators' roster and will head back to Belleville (AHL) after failing to pick up a point through seven games with Ottawa. The 25-year-old defenseman returns to the minors, where he had two goals, 10 points and 24 PIMs across 37 games played prior to his promotion.
Jensen has two goals, 22 assists, 82 SOG, 16 PIMs and a -1 plus/minus through 62 games this season and has signed a three-year contract extension worth $12.15 million ($4.05M AAV). The 32-year-old is rounding out his fifth season in Washington.
Anderson was miraculous in his previous start, stopping 49 of 50 shots for a victory over Florida in his fourth 40+ save victory of the year. The 41-year-old has turned back time this season, as proven by his 9-7-2 record, 2.70 GAA and .920 SV%. He will face the Columbus Blue Jackets, who have lost three of their last four games and are 30th in the NHL in goals per game (2.55).

Zetterlund has been in-and-out of the Devils lineup this season, scoring six goals with 14 assists (20 points) in 45 games. The 2017 third-round pick has an outstanding shot and will provide some offensive punch in the Sharks' middle-6. Zetterlund should see an increase in usage (12:57 ATOI in NJD) following this trade.
Sanderson last played on February 11th due to an upper-body injury and has been activated off the injured reserve Thursday. The 20-year-old rookie has three goals, 18 assists, 85 SOG, six PIMs and a -3 plus/minus through 51 games prior to his injury.
Gilbert has been a healthy scratch for the Flames' previous two games but will draw back into the lineup Monday vs. Philadelphia. The 26-year-old has a goal, two assists, eight SOG, and 20 PIMs across 12 games played this season.
Ullmark stopped 26 of 28 shots (.929 SV%) for his third-straight win as he beat the New York Islanders easily in his previous start. The 29-year-old is leading Vezina Trophy voting due to his league-leading 1.91 GAA, .936 SV% and 28-4-1 record. He will face the Ottawa Senators, who have won three of their last four games after an impressive 7-2 thumping of St. Louis yesterday.
Brassard has eight goals, seven assists, 73 SOG, 24 PIMs and a -1 plus/minus through 44 games this season but will be a healthy scratch Monday vs. Boston. He heads to the press box as the newly acquired winger, Julien Gauthier takes his spot in the Senators' lineup. Brassard is five games off of reaching 1000 on his career.
