Player Discussion Linus Ullmark (G)

It's very hard to have any confidence in Ullmark in net, every shot on net is a concern until he starts to play consistently like we have seen him in some games & in his Vezina season
Maybe a bit lost in all this is that he’s likely been playing hurt all season. Didn’t someone say he has a herniated disc and will need surgery?

If true, he still played at a pretty high level and got us into the playoffs so I will cut him some slack for the inconsistency.

Not a brilliant observation or anything, but I knew from the first few minutes of the game that Linus was on.

Except for someone like say, Hasek, I look to see how calm the goalie looks; are they relaxed and letting the game come to them or are they "fighting" the game;

Linus was on and it showed at various points where he was just in the proper position with deflected pucks hitting him the lower pads and going wide etc. Many of those shots would have found there way in earlier in the series.

His body language was ice whole game , had excellent positioning for once. If he entred the zone we might have a chance to win this serie
It seems like he has been getting a bit better each game. If is indeed beginning to lock in, it's at the right time.

I still don't think the Senators have had much puck luck and if the hockey gods smile upon us, there are a few dirty goals yet to be had for us. If we can get another lead and play smart, a game 7 may be in the cards.

Tomorrow is going to be bonkers at the CTC.
