Ullmark (illness) will get the starting nod for Game 1 against Florida on Monday, Amalie Benjamin of NHL.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Ullmark was considered a game-time call along with several other Bruins but he'll be between the pipes to begin the postseason. He's been stellar all year, posting a 1.89 GAA and a .938 save percentage with a 40-6-1 record. The 29-year-old stopped 74 of 80 shots while winning both of his starts against the Panthers this season.

Ullmark (illness) will be a game-time decision for Game 1 against Florida on Monday, WBZ Boston Sports reports.
EDGE Analysis
A bug is going around the Bruins' locker room ahead of the team's playoff opener. Ullmark and Jeremy Swayman, who took part in Boston's optional morning skate Monday, are both feeling under the weather. As a result, a starting goalie for Game 1 against the Panthers hasn't been decided yet. The Bruins recalled netminder Brandon Bussi from AHL Providence on Monday under emergency conditions.

Ullmark (undisclosed) is back at practice Saturday, Fluto Shinzawa of The Athletic reports.
EDGE Analysis
Ullmark left Tuesday's tilt versus Washington and did not travel with the Bruins to Montreal for Thursday's regular season finale, but the Bruins were likely just being cautious with their star goaltender. Ullmark ended the season with a 40-6-1 record, to go with an eye-popping 1.89 GAA and .938 save percentage. He is the heavy favorite to win the Vezina Trophy this season and should start Monday in Game 1 of the Stanley Cup playoffs versus the Panthers.

Ullmark (undisclosed) will not be with the team for the season finale against the Canadiens on Thursday. Coach Jim Montgomery told reporters, "Linus is good today. But we're going to be precautionary with him," Fluto Shinzawa of The Athletic reports.
EDGE Analysis
The bench boss didn't specify whether Ullmark would be ready for Game 1 of the postseason, but it certainly seems to be trending in that direction. If the netminder isn't able to go, Jeremy Swayman would figure to step into the starting role. For his part, Ullmark should be a Vezina Trophy candidate after racking up 40 wins in 49 games along with a 1.89 GAA and .938 save percentage.

Ullmark left Tuesday's start with an undisclosed injury, Fluto Shinzawa of The Athletic reports.
EDGE Analysis
This is likely the Bruins being cautious, especially since Ullmark has dealt with a nagging lower-body injury recently. He stopped 18 of 20 shots and left with a 4-2 lead, replaced by Jeremy Swayman. With the Bruins already clinching home ice throughout the playoffs, they will likely rest Ullmark for Thursday's game in Montreal.

Ullmark will tend the twine against the Capitals at home Tuesday, Joe Haggerty of Boston Hockey Now reports.
EDGE Analysis
Ullmark and Jeremy Swayman have been pretty evenly dividing the workload since mid-February with Ullmark starting 15 of 29 contests. During that stretch, the Swede is 13-2-0 with a 1.85 GAA and a .941 save percentage. If the trend continues, Swayman will likely start the regular-season finale versus Montreal on Thursday. Having said that, it seems unlikely, though not impossible, that Boston will continue rotating goalies in the playoffs. As such, expect Ullmark to be the regular starter in the postseason.

Ullmark (lower body) will not be available Sunday against the Flyers, Matt Porter of The Boston Globe reports.
EDGE Analysis
Ullmark stopped 29 of 30 shots in Saturday's win over the Devils so he likely wouldn't have seen any action Sunday anyway. Brandon Bussi will serve as the backup for Jeremy Swayman on Sunday.

Ullmark saved 29 of 30 shots in a 2-1 win over New Jersey on Saturday.
EDGE Analysis
Boston found the back of the net twice early in the first period, and that was all the offensive support Ullmark needed. The 29-year-old has won three straight starts while saving 89 of 94 shots in that span. He's up to 39-6-1 with a 1.89 GAA and a .938 save percentage in 48 contests this season. Boston will probably start Jeremy Swayman on Sunday in the interest of giving Ullmark a breather, but he might be back in net Tuesday versus Washington in pursuit of his 40th victory.

Ullmark made 35 saves on 38 shots in Sunday's 4-3 shootout win over St. Louis.
