The Ottawa Senators roll into Canada Life Centre tonight on a loss and having lost seven of their last ten. The Senators look to flip the script with a win over the Jets tonight as they wrap up their road trip and head home for a couple of games.
Winnipeg Jets News & Notes:
The Winnipeg Jets look to continue their winning ways with their MVP goaltender, Connor Hellebuyck, back in the fold. The Jets just sent down Domenic DiVincentiis to make room for Hellebuyck’s activation off injured reserve.

Players To Watch:
Ottawa Senators
Dylan Cozens has been a great second-line option for Ottawa since he was acquired at the 2025 NHL Trade Deadline. He could be one of many factors that play into the Senators winning tonight.
Linus Ullmark will have to be a rock in the net for the Senators tonight, and that’s solely off the fact that the Jets look their best since well before Hellebuyck’s injury.
Winnipeg Jets
Cole Perfetti seems to have found himself in a bit of a dry spell, and that could end tonight with a big performance over the Senators.
Dylan Samberg has been consistent for the Winnipeg Jets, and now it’s a matter of stringing together strong games if the Jets want a chance to win.
