Senators' Thomas Chabot: Tallies in Wednesday's win
Rotowire
Chabot scored a goal on two shots and went plus-2 in Wednesday's 8-4 win over the Rangers.

The goal was Chabot's fifth of the season, three of which have been scored over his last seven outings. He's at 16 points, 50 shots on net, 59 blocked shots, 23 hits and an even plus-minus rating across 31 appearances in a top-four role.

Senators' Tim Stutzle: Fills empty cage
Rotowire
Stutzle scored an empty-net goal on three shots in Wednesday's 8-4 win over the Rangers.
Stutzle had a 13-game point streak between Dec. 9 and Jan. 5, but he went cold with three scoreless outings after that. The center is warming up again with a goal, an assist and nine shots over his last two contests. For the season, the 23-year-old has 20 goals, 47 points, 115 shots on net, 78 hits, 30 blocked shots, 29 PIM and a plus-3 rating through 46 appearances. Stutzle has reached the 20-goal mark four times in six years in his career, and he's well on his way to getting to 30 tallies for the second time.

Senators' Drake Batherson: Strikes early on power play
Rotowire
Batherson scored a power-play goal in Wednesday's 8-4 win over the Rangers.
Batherson opened the scoring at 2:18 of the first period. He has gotten on the scoresheet in three straight games, but he's now 11 contests removed from his last multi-point effort. The 27-year-old winger is up to 18 goals, 42 points (15 on the power play), 94 shots on net, 63 hits, 19 PIM and a minus-3 rating over 43 outings this season, mainly in a top-six role.

Senators' Nick Jensen: Goal, assist in Wednesday's win
Rotowire
Jensen scored a goal on two shots, added an assist, blocked two shots and went plus-2 in Wednesday's 8-4 win over the Rangers.
Jensen had gone four games without a point prior to Wednesday. The 35-year-old defenseman is up to three goals, 12 points, 30 shots on net, 43 blocked shots, 27 hits, 22 PIM and a minus-12 rating over 44 appearances. He's been given two games off since the holiday break, one of which was in a back-to-back set. It looks like the Senators will manage Jensen's workload a bit, at least while the team is fully healthy on the blue line.

Senators' David Perron: Earns two points in win
Rotowire
Perron scored a goal, dished an assist, added two PIM and went plus-3 in Wednesday's 8-4 win over the Rangers.
Perron ended his six-game slump with the effort. He entered Wednesday with just one goal over 10 games since his last multi-point effort. The veteran winger is fulling a bottom-six role but has also featured regularly on the power play, which has helped him stay productive. He's up nine goals, 23 points, 66 shots on net, 61 hits, 18 PIM and a plus-2 rating through 46 outings this season.

Senators' Jake Sanderson: One of each in win
Rotowire
Sanderson scored a goal, added an assist and blocked five shots in Wednesday's 8-4 win over the Rangers.
Sanderson saw a seven-game point streak snapped Tuesday versus the Canucks, but he made up for it Wednesday. The defenseman was one of seven Senators to earn multiple points in this blowout win, and it was his first such performance since Dec. 15 in Winnipeg. Sanderson is up to nine goals, 35 points, 98 shots on net, 92 blocks and a plus-5 rating through 46 appearances. He is on pace to top the 60-point mark for the first time in his career.

Senators' Dylan Cozens: Produces three points in win
Rotowire
Cozens scored a goal on four shots, added two assists and went plus-2 in Wednesday's 8-4 win over the Rangers.
Cozens did all of his work in a four-goal first period for the Senators. One of his helpers came on the power play as well. The 24-year-old had gone 10 contests without a multi-point effort, earning just one goal and three assists in that span. For the season, the center has 13 goals, 21 helpers, 108 shots on net, 126 hits, 36 PIM and a minus-15 rating across 46 appearances.

Senators' Brady Tkachuk: Leads offense with four points
Rotowire
Tkachuk scored a goal on six shots, added three assists, went plus-3 and logged two hits in Wednesday's 8-4 win over the Rangers.
The goal was the 200th of Tkachuk's career. The captain led the way with his first multi-point effort since Dec. 20 in this contest. Tkachuk has picked up seven points over eight outings in January, and he's at nine goals, 16 helpers, 108 shots on net, 78 hits, 28 PIM and a minus-4 rating through 26 appearances this season.

Senators' Leevi Merilainen: Takes advantage of easy matchup
Rotowire
Merilainen stopped 18 of 22 shots in Wednesday's 8-4 win over the Rangers.
The Senators took care of business early, which made Merilainen's poor third period (three goals against) a non-issue. He's won his last two starts, but he has allowed five goals on 42 shots in that span. The 23-year-old is at an 8-10-0 record with a 3.37 GAA and an .868 save percentage over 19 appearances. Merilainen's time as the Senators' primary starter should be nearing a close, as James Reimer is now with the team and Linus Ullmark (personal) should be approaching his return. It's unclear if the Senators will keep Merilainen on the roster for a weekend back-to-back with games at home versus the Canadiens on Saturday and in Detroit on Sunday.
Senators' Leevi Merilainen: Starting again Wednesday
Rotowire
Merilainen is slated to start on the road versus the Rangers on Wednesday, Stephen Whyno of the Associated Press reports.
Merilainen will start back-to-back games, but James Reimer is set to back him up in this one after Hunter Shepard was reassigned to AHL Belleville earlier in the day. Merilainen stopped 19 of 20 shots in Tuesday's win over the Canucks, but he received an early hook the last time he started consecutive days, which was versus the Avalanche on Jan. 8.

Senators' Hunter Shepard: Sent back to AHL
Rotowire
Shepard was loaned to AHL Belleville on Wednesday, Julian McKenzie of The Athletic reports.
After serving as Leevi Merilainen's backup for two games, Shepard will head back to the AHL to make room for James Reimer, who signed a one-year deal with Ottawa on Monday. In 12 appearances with Belleville this season, Shepard has a 5-6-1 record with a 3.41 GAA and an .897 save percentage. His stats at both levels make him a tough option to trust in fantasy if he receives another call-up to the NHL later this year.
Amadio notched an assist and three hits in Tuesday's 2-1 win over the Canucks.
Amadio is still stuck in a 15-game goal drought, and he's picked up just three assists in that span. The 29-year-old is still seeing third-line minutes, but the lack of offense has taken him out of the mix for consideration in most fantasy formats. For the season, he's up to 17 points, 57 shots on net, 67 hits, 25 blocked shots and a plus-5 rating through 45 contests.

Senators' Artem Zub: Snaps 17-game goal drought
Rotowire
Zub scored a goal in a 2-1 win over the Canucks on Tuesday.
The marker snapped a 17-game goal drought. Zub has four goals, 10 assists, 66 blocks and 49 shots in 44 games this season. His career high in points was set in the 2023-24 regular season (five goals, 20 assists), and he would match that total if he maintains his current offensive pace this campaign.

Senators' Jordan Spence: Rare goal in win
Rotowire
Spence scored a goal Tuesday in a 2-1 win over Vancouver.
He scored 15 seconds after Artem Zub opened the scoring at 15:36 of the first period. It was Spence's first goal in eight games, and he has three goals and 12 assists in 36 games overall. He has a shot at bettering his career mark of 28 points (four goals, 24 assists), which he set last season for the Kings.

Senators' Leevi Merilainen: First win in five games
Rotowire
Merilainen made 19 saves in a 2-1 win over Vancouver on Tuesday.
The young netminder hadn't won since Jan. 3, so the victory was a huge weight lifted off. Merilainen has played eight straight, but he could get time off this week. There is a good chance free agent signee James Reimer will play this week, and Linus Ullmark (personal) skated Tuesday. Merilainen's future remains bright, but he could be sent down to the AHL for a more structured development experience.
