Impact Sanderson led all players with 43:06 of ice time over nearly five full periods of hockey. He'll be forced into a lot of minutes since injuries continue to deplete the Senators' blue line.

This is his second taste of the playoffs after earning three points over six postseason contests last spring.

Whether Sanderson will play Wednesday against Toronto remains to be seen, but he should be back on the ice for the start of the postseason. Sanderson has appeared in five games since his multi-week absence due to an upper-body injury, recording three goals, three assists, 12 blocked shots and a hit while averaging 25:10 of ice time across that span.
