Jonas Johansson - Sent down Thursday Johansson was demoted to AHL Belleville on Thursday.

Impact Johansson's reassignment to the minors likely means that Linus Ullmark (undisclosed) will be at least healthy enough to serve as the backup, if not the outright starter, against the Flyers on Thursday. If Samuel Ersson continues to struggle out of the gate, the Senators could decide to give Johansson a longer look at the NHL level, but for now he'll remain in Belleville.

Artem Zub - Resumes skating Thursday Zub, who has been recovering from a knee injury, was seen skating during Senators' morning skate Thursday, per Wayne Scanlan of Sportsnet.

Impact Zub faced a setback in his recovery in the late stages of Ottawa's training camp. While he's missed each of the Senators' first three games of the new season, his presence at morning skate Thursday indicates that he could be nearing a return. The 31-year-old blueliner had a career year offensively in 2025-26, where he compiled five goals, 30 points, 92 shots on net, 66 hits and 120 blocked shots across 81 regular-season games. Once he's ready to return, he'll likely occupy a top-four pairing alongside either Thomas Chabot or Jake Sanderson.

William Eklund - Two-point night in Detroit Eklund scored an even-strength goal and added a power-play assist in Tuesday's 5-3 loss to the Red Wings.

Impact After setting up Drake Batherson for a tally early in the second period, Eklund potted his first goal as a Senator midway through the third, jumping on a loose puck after Fabian Zetterlund's shot went wide and banking it home off John Gibson from a sharp angle. The points were the first of the season in three games for Eklund, who was acquired from the Sharks in the offseason. With a top-six role and a spot on the top power-play unit with the Senators, the 23-year-old Eklund is in prime position to take a step forward with his production and potentially reach the 20-goal and 60-point plateaus for the first time.

Drake Batherson - Two-point effort in loss to Wings Batherson scored a power-play goal and added an even-strength assist in Tuesday's 5-3 loss to Detroit.

Impact After having a hand in a Tim Stutzle tally early in the first period, Batherson banged home his own goal early in the second on a slick cross-ice shot-pass from William Eklund. Batherson has picked up two goals and three points through three games, and after dishing out five hits Tuesday he's up to 10 on the young season.

Tim Stutzle - Two more points Tuesday Stutzle produced a goal and an assist in Tuesday's 5-3 loss to the Red Wings.

Impact The third overall pick in the 2020 NHL Draft opened the scoring early in the first period, taking the puck out of his own zone, maneuvering around the Detroit defense and snapping the puck past John Gibson from the slot. Stutzle has come flying out of the gates on the 2026-27 campaign, racking up three goals and six points in three games while adding seven shots on net, nine hits, three blocked shots, two PIM and a plus-4 rating. His production is even more impressive considering he's still looking for his first power-play point of the season.

Samuel Ersson - Rough night in Detroit Ersson turned aside 31 of 35 shots in Tuesday's 5-3 loss to the Red Wings, with Detroit's final goal getting scored into an empty net.

Impact Making his first start of the season, Ersson's misplay on a bouncing puck early in the first period led directly to an Alex DeBrincat tally and sparked a four-goal surge for the home side that put the game out of reach. With Linus Ullmark (undisclosed) banged up, Ersson could be in line for more work than expected in the short term, but he'll need better performances than this to hang onto his spot as Ottawa's No. 2 netminder. Ullmark's availability will determine which of them is between the pipes Thursday in a home clash with the Flyers.
