OTTAWA (AP) — Ottawa goalie Linus Ullmark is taking a leave of absence for personal reasons, Senators general manager Steve Staios said in a statement on Sunday.
Ullmark has a 14-8-5 record this season with a .881 save percentage and 2.95 goals-against average. He was pulled in the second period of the Senators' 7-5 loss to the Toronto Maple Leafs on Saturday after allowing four goals on 14 shots.
Ullmark, a 32-year-old Swede, joined the Senators in a trade from the Boston Bruins in June 2024. He signed a four-year, $33 million contract extension with Ottawa last October.
Senators backup Leevi Merilainen has a .874 save percentage and 3.43 goals-against average in 10 appearances this season.
Ottawa next plays Monday at home against Columbus.
