Forsberg stopped 17 shots in Thursday's 4-0 loss to the Sabres.
EDGE Analysis
It was a rough night for Ottawa in all three zones and Forsberg was hung out to dry, with Buffalo's final tally deflecting in off Thomas Chabot's leg. The veteran netminder has gone 0-2-1 while starting three straight games since returning from a lower-body injury, giving up 11 goals on 79 shots (.861 save percentage). There's no timeline yet for Linus Ullmark (back) to rejoin the Sens, but Forsberg will likely begin ceding work back to Leevi Merilainen unless he can turn things around.

Forsberg was the first goalie to leave the ice Thursday, TSN 1200 Ottawa reports, indicating he'll tend the twine at home versus Buffalo.
EDGE Analysis
Forsberg hasn't exactly impressed since returning from a lower-body injury, going 0-1-1 in two appearances to go with a 3.44 GAA. Still, with a back-to-back upcoming, Forsberg figures to split games against the Penguins and Stars on Saturday and Sunday, respectively, with Leevi Merilainen. Once Linus Ullmark (back) is cleared to play, Forsberg figures to once again be relegated to the No. 2 role in Ottawa.

Forsberg made 30 saves in Tuesday's 3-2 overtime loss to the Red Wings.
EDGE Analysis
Two of Detroit's goals came on the power play, including Patrick Kane's OT winner. Forsberg has started two straight games since returning from a lower-body injury, allowing seven goals on 58 shots, and he seems poised to handle No. 1 duties for the Senators over 22-year-old rookie Leevi Merilainen until Linus Ullmark (back) is healthy again.

Forsberg will draw the road start Tuesday against the Red Wings, per TSN 1200 Ottawa.
EDGE Analysis
Forsberg made his first start since Dec. 8 in a 4-0 loss to the Blues on Friday after missing nine games due to a lower-body injury. The Swedish netminder has struggled in 2024-25, but he'll have an opportunity to prove his worth due to Linus Ullmark (back) being placed on injured reserve Tuesday. The Red Wings are 4-1-0 since Todd McLellan took over as head coach Dec. 26.

Forsberg stopped 21 of 25 shots in Friday's 4-0 loss to the Blues.
EDGE Analysis
Forsberg returned from a nine-game absence due to a lower-body injury. His Senators teammates failed to provide any scoring support, and Forsberg let in a goal to Brayden Schenn and three more to Brandon Saad in the loss. Forsberg is down to 4-7-0 with a 3.04 GAA and an .885 save percentage over 12 appearances this season. He could share the playing time between the pipes with Leevi Merilainen until Linus Ullmark (back) is able to return. The Senators wrap up a nine-game road trip Tuesday in Detroit.

Forsberg will be between the road pipes against the Blues on Friday, TSN 1200 Ottawa reports.
EDGE Analysis
Although Leevi Merilainen drew the road start in Dallas on Thursday in the first half of a back-to-back set, Forsberg will return the crease for the first time since Dec. 8 after missing time with a lower-body injury. Forsberg made 11 appearances prior to his absence, posting a 4-6-0 record, 2.95 GAA and .889 save percentage. He'll have a favorable matchup during his first game back in action, as the Blues are averaging just 2.69 goals this season, which is the ninth-worst mark in the league.

Forsberg (lower body) was activated from injured reserve Thursday and will be the backup goaltender in Dallas, according to TSN 1200 Ottawa.
EDGE Analysis
Forsberg has missed the last nine games. He is 4-6-0 with a pair of shutouts, a 2.95 GAA and an .889 save percentage across 11 outings this season. He will back up Leevi Merilainen on Thursday and will get the majority of starts until Linus Ullmark returns to action from a back injury.

Forsberg (lower body) moved to injured reserve Saturday, per Steve Lloyd of TSN 1200 Ottawa.
EDGE Analysis
Forsberg is on the Senators' road trip and is eligible to come off injured reserve at any time, but it's unclear when he will be available to return. Ottawa brought up Mads Sogaard and Leevi Merilainen from AHL Belleville on Friday because of injuries to Forsberg and Linus Ullmark (back). Forsberg will miss his sixth straight game against Winnipeg on Saturday after getting hurt before a matchup versus Pittsburgh on Dec. 14.

Forsberg (lower body) will travel with the Senators on the team's five-game road trip per TSN 1200 Ottawa on Friday.
EDGE Analysis
He has missed the last five games due to injury. Forsberg is not guaranteed to play against Winnipeg on Saturday or Sunday versus Minnesota. Linus Ullmark (back) won't be with the team, so the Senators recalled Leevi Merilainen and Mads Sogaard from AHL Belleville on Friday. Forsberg is 4-6-0 with a 2.95 GAA and an .889 save percentage this season.

Forsberg (undisclosed) won't travel with the Senators on their upcoming road trip and remains without a timeline for return, Bruce Garrioch of Postmedia reports.
EDGE Analysis
The Senators will be without their backup netminder as they start a nine-game road trip Tuesday in Seattle. Leevi Merilainen was recalled from AHL Belleville to serve as Linus Ullmark's backup in Forsberg's absence.
