My Senators analysis

The Ottawa Senators are 5-2 at home with four regulation wins, and they have received elite goaltending from No. 1 Linus Ullmark all year. He’s posted a .919 save percentage and 1.98 GAA with 0.12 goals saved above average per 60, and those numbers include a one-off stinker against the Buffalo Sabres on the road when he allowed five goals on 34 shots.

I value Ottawa's full lineup jumping the boards. The Senators boast an impressive 30-15-3 record when forwards Josh Norris, Tim Stutzle, and Shane Pinto have all been in the lineup since the 2020-21 campaign.

Defenseman Artem Zub also missed nine games with a concussion, so having the go-to blueliner back is another plus because he plays in all situations and averaged a healthy 21:01 of ice time per game last season.

The underlying numbers check out, too.

Ottawa sports a sixth-ranked 53.4 Corsi For percentage and 53.3 expected goals percentage at 5-on-5, and they’ve also allowed the third-fewest expected goals (1.88) per 60 on home ice.

Additionally, the Sens continue to have success with the man advantage with a fourth-ranked 29.2 power-play percentage, and their 19th-ranked 79.1 penalty-kill percentage has been dragged down by a 76.2% mark on the road. Ottawa has posted a respectable 81.8% ratio on home ice.

Turning to the visiting Philadelphia Flyers, they enter with a 26th-ranked 46.2 CF% and 45.9 xGF% at 5-on-5. Additionally, the goaltending situation for Philly is a mess, ranking 31st with a .874 team save percentage at 5-on-5. While having Samuel Ersson Healthy helps, he still Sports a career .894 SV%, 2.84 GAA, and -0.01 GSAA/60 across 74 Games.

Senators vs Flyers Over/Under analysis

The Sens are finally at full health, and they’ve got a well-rounded lineup with a solid scoring core and former Vezina Trophy winner in net. I wouldn’t be surprised if there was a notable move to the Ottawa side of this moneyline given the highlighted 5-on-5 mismatches.

Ottawa hasn’t hit an Over in six games (0-4-2), and I attribute it to overall improved team defense at 5-on-5. Additionally, with Philadelphia ranking 28th in goals and 27th in expected goals per 60 at 5-on-5, I don’t expect them to be held in check to also help the Under.
