OTTAWA – The Ottawa Senators placed goaltender Linus Ullmark on injured reserve Thursday, a day after he sustained a lower-body strain in a 5-1 win over the Florida Panthers.
The injured reserve designation means Ullmark will miss at least a week.
Ullmark was injured in the third period of Wednesday’s game after making a pad save on Brady Tkachuk and needed assistance leaving the ice.

Samuel Ersson came on in relief and stopped the only shot he faced.
Ullmark (7-1-0) has had an excellent start to the season, ranking second in the league with a 1.33 goals-against average and a .945 save percentage.
Also Thursday, the Senators recalled goaltender Jonas Johansson from the American Hockey League’s Belleville Senators.
Johansson is 3-1-1 with a 2.92 GAA and .912 save percentage in five AHL games this season.
The Senators made the roster announcements before their game Thursday night against visiting San Jose.
