Player Discussion Jake Sanderson (D) PART 3

[Chelis Chili]

THIRD STAR – JAKE SANDERSON, D, OTTAWA SENATORS
Sanderson totaled 2-4—6 in two games to power the Senators (28-20-4, 60 points) – who occupy third place in the Atlantic Division – to their fourth straight victory dating to Jan. 25. He collected 1-1—2, recording an assist while shorthanded and a goal while on the power play, in a 5-4 overtime win against the Eastern Conference-leading Washington Capitals Jan. 30. Sanderson then established a personal high with 1-3—4, including his 100th career NHL point, in a 6-0 victory over the Minnesota Wild Feb. 1. The 22-year-old Sanderson paces Ottawa blueliners and ranks 16th among all NHL defensemen with 4‑29—33 through 51 total appearances this season, five points shy of his career high set in 2023-24 (10‑28—38 in 79 GP).

The people on the main Four Nations thread who prefer taking Hutson instead should be ashamed of themselves

True and I applaud Hutson's rookie year offensive contribution.

Sanderson should have been selected over Faber anyways.

Damn, I wanted as many of our players rest up as possible! Too bad Hamonic isn't American, surely they would have gone with him instead!

He did have that one shot that clocked in at 96.7mph, surprised Doughty got the nod over him.

 

[Burrowsaurus]

Why. Why is he going f***.

 

[Boud]

To me that’s great news. He’ll be able to play best on best, get that confidence even higher.

Sanderson deserves to be there, he’s that good. I’m not worried about him getting injured. I understand for Ullmark because he missed a lot of time and it’s also a back injury which is tricky to deal with… but not issues with Sanderson going.

Great to see Matinpalo and Sanderson going.

f*** sakes... Better not get injured.

 

[frightenedinmatenum2]

Why. Why is he going f***.

Look at the positives.

It's high pressure best on best hockey, which he has never played at the pro level. So unlike Ullmark, you can justify Tkachuk and Sanderson getting something out of this.
