Pots goal Sunday Jensen scored a goal in Sunday's 7-1 win over the Golden Knights.

Impact Jensen closed out the scoring for the Senators with a wrister at the 3:56 mark of the third period. That was just his fourth goal of the campaign. The 35-year-old veteran isn't much of a fantasy contributor when it comes to goals or assists, but it's worth noting that he has two goals and two helpers in his last six games while notching all but one of his four goals since the beginning of January. It might not be enough to be an option in standard formats, but he could be worth a flyer as a waiver pickup in deeper leagues.

Goal, assist in Wednesday's win Jensen scored a goal on two shots, added an assist, blocked two shots and went plus-2 in Wednesday's 8-4 win over the Rangers.

Impact Jensen had gone four games without a point prior to Wednesday. The 35-year-old defenseman is up to three goals, 12 points, 30 shots on net, 43 blocked shots, 27 hits, 22 PIM and a minus-12 rating over 44 appearances. He's been given two games off since the holiday break, one of which was in a back-to-back set. It looks like the Senators will manage Jensen's workload a bit, at least while the team is fully healthy on the blue line.

Rare goal in win Jensen scored a goal on two shots in Thursday's 4-3 win over the Capitals.

Impact Jensen was a healthy scratch Monday versus the Blue Jackets. Prior to that, he had logged a mere four assists over 20 contests since his Nov. 11 goal versus the Stars. The defenseman has been limited to a bottom-four role this season, which makes it hard for him to be a regular on the scoresheet. He's at nine points, 24 shots on net, 38 blocked shots, 26 hits, 22 PIM and a minus-8 rating over 38 appearances. Jensen is at risk of missing the 20-point mark for the second time in three years.

Secures assist Thursday Jensen logged an assist in Thursday's 4-0 win over the Penguins.

Impact Jensen snapped a 10-game point drought when he set up Brady Tkachuk's second goal of the contest. The 35-year-old Jensen saw 19:16 of ice time Thursday, his highest total since Nov. 11. He's been firmly in a bottom-four role this season, which limits his appeal in fantasy, especially since he didn't have a high ceiling to begin with. Jensen is at seven points, 21 shots on net, 22 hits, 34 blocked shots and a minus-7 rating over 33 appearances.

Set to play Jensen (upper body) is expected to play against the Kings on Saturday, according to

Impact After leaving Thursday's 5-3 win over Boston early due to an injury, it appears Jensen won't miss additional action. He participated in Friday's practice and Saturday's morning skate, paving the way for him to remain in the lineup. Jensen has supplied one goal, three assists, 13 shots on net, 20 blocked shots and 17 hits across 18 appearances this season.

Sustains upper-body injury Jensen suffered an upper-body injury during Thursday's tilt against Boston and won't return to the game.

Impact Jensen recorded one hit and had a minus-1 rating in 12:02 of ice time before exiting the game. He has a goal and four points in 18 appearances this season, including Thursday's action. If Jensen can't play Saturday versus the Kings, then Ottawa will be down to five healthy defensemen and will need to call someone up from the minors. Thomas Chabot (upper body) is also on the shelf and isn't believed to be close to returning.

First goal of season Jensen scored a goal in Tuesday's 3-2 overtime loss to the Stars.

Impact It was his first goal of the season. Jensen pinched in from the blue line and finished a passing play by chipping the puck over Jake Oettinger's glove from in tight. He has four points (one goal, three assists) and 13 shots in 17 games this season, and he averages about one hit and one block each game. Jensen's fantasy value is limited, at best.

Contributes first assist of season Jensen supplied an assist and blocked two shots in Saturday's 5-4 loss to the Islanders.

Impact This was Jensen's first point in six outings this season. The better news for the Senators is that he appears to be fully recovered from hip surgery he underwent in the offseason, as he's been able to hold down a bottom-four role. The 35-year-old defenseman has posted eight hits, five blocked shots, a minus-3 rating and four shots on net. He's reached the 20-point mark in three of the last four years, but that would likely be a best-case scenario for his offense in 2025-26.

Says he'll play Saturday Jensen (hip) said Friday that he'll play in Saturday's preseason finale against Montreal, Bruce Garrioch of Postmedia reports.

Impact Head coach Travis Green was hopeful that Jensen would be able to suit up in Saturday's preseason finale, and the defenseman will officially be able to make his return to the ice just before the start of the regular season. It seems likely that Jensen will also be available for Thursday's Opening Night matchup against the Lightning.
