Rotowire
Ullmark (back) has been upgraded to day-to-day and will accompany the Senators on their three-game road trip that begins Sunday in New Jersey.
Ullmark is not guaranteed to play during the trip, but it appears he's getting closer after being considered week-to-week since early January. He has already missed 11 consecutive contests. Once Ullmark returns, the Senators will have a tough decision to make, as Leevi Merilainen has outplayed Anton Forsberg during Ullmark's absence.

Senators' Linus Ullmark: Lands on injured reserve
Rotowire
Ullmark (back) was designated for injured reserve Tuesday, per the NHL media site.
Ullmark was classified as week-to-week by the Senators on Sunday, so his placement on IR shouldn't be a shock to fantasy players. In his stead, both Anton Forsberg and Leevi Merilainen should get opportunities to start. In his 23 appearances this year, the 31-year-old Ullmark has registered a 12-7-2 record to go with a 2.38 GAA and a .915 save percentage.

Senators' Linus Ullmark: Exits with upper-body injury
Rotowire
Ullmark exited Sunday's road game against Edmonton after the first period due to an upper-body injury.
Ullmark turned aside six of seven shots in the first period, and it was surprising to see Leevi Merilainen take the net to begin the second period, especially considering Ullmark entered Sunday's game on a seven-game winning streak. Ullmark's dealing with an upper-body injury that will force him to miss the remainder of the game. It's unclear whether he'll recover in time to face Winnipeg on Saturday.

Senators' Linus Ullmark: Winning streak up to seven games
Rotowire
Ullmark stopped 29 of 31 shots in Thursday's 3-2 overtime win over the Flames.
Ullmark also had an assist on Brady Tkachuk's game-winning tally. This was Ullmark's seventh straight win, and it was just the second time in that span he's allowed multiple goals. The Swede improved to 12-7-2 with a 2.37 GAA and a .916 save percentage over 22 appearances. His hot streak has come with a heavy workload due to the absence of Anton Forsberg (undisclosed), who has been unavailable for the last three games. Ullmark will likely start one of the Senators' contests this weekend, either Saturday in Vancouver or Sunday in Edmonton, but it wouldn't be surprising for Leevi Merilainen to get a game in that back-to-back set.
