Linus Ullmark vs. Justus Annunen
Tonight’s NHL showdown features a goaltending duel that’s sure to be full of energy! Between the pipes, we have Linus Ullmark facing off against Justus Annunen.
Ullmark, coming off a tough game where he turned away 22 of 27 shots in a 6-4 loss to the Golden Knights, has had a rocky start with a save percentage below .850 in both defeats.
Not exactly the season launch Ullmark was hoping for, but this seasoned netminder is looking to bounce back. So far, he’s 1-1-0 with a 2.59 GAA and a .914 save percentage, reminding us of his solid record last year with the Bruins (22-10-7, 2.58 GAA, .915 save percentage).
On the other end, we’ve got Annunen, who’s been on a roll! He held firm in Thursday’s 5-1 victory over Utah, stopping 25 of 26 shots. Annunen’s been showing up strong in his early games this season, allowing only four goals across his last three starts.
His numbers? An impressive 2-1-0 record with a 2.46 GAA and a .900 save percentage in four games this year. While he may only have 19 games of NHL experience under his belt, Annunen’s career stats (10-5-2, 2.68 GAA, .911 save percentage) prove he’s ready to shine.
The Avalanche had the upper hand in the head-to-head series against the Senators, achieving a 2-0-0 record. When it comes to the puck line, the Avalanche recorded a 2-0 record.

Ottawa Senators
The Senators dropped to 4-3-0 with a 6-4 loss to the Golden Knights. Ottawa’s defense fell apart in the third period, allowing three unanswered goals.
As underdogs on the puck line, the Senators failed to cover. The total for the game was set at 6.5 goals, but the teams combined for 10.
Ottawa Senators Stats
Adam Gaudette led the Senators with two goals, scoring his second and third of the season. He found the net 2:40 into the game and added a power-play goal in the second period. Drake Batherson, who now has five goals this season, scored in the first period and also picked up his fourth assist on Claude Giroux’s third goal of the year.
Ottawa fired 39 shots on goal but also had 11 giveaways. They scored three times in the first period and added a fourth goal in the second before being held scoreless in the third.
Defensively, the Senators struggled late, giving up three goals in the 3rd period, including the tying goal at 3:11 and the go-ahead goal at 2:11. Linus Ullmark finished with a save percentage of 81.5% on 27 shots from the Golden Knights. The Senators’ defense also recorded 2 takeaways and 28 hits.
Colorado Avalanche
With a 5-1 win over the Utah Hockey Club, the Avalanche evened their record at 4-4-0. Colorado, favored by -1.5 goals, covered the puck line with ease. The total for the game was set at 6.5 goals, but the combined 6 goals fell just short of that mark.
Five different players scored for the Avalanche, who kept Utah off the board until the third period. Ross Colton opened the scoring at 10:06 in the first period.
Colorado Avalanche Stats
Colorado’s offense netted 5 goals on 26 shots in their 5-1 victory, with five different players finding the back of the net. Ross Colton opened the scoring with his 7th goal of the season, while Joel Kiviranta added his 4th. Ivan Ivan scored his first goal of the year, and Casey Mittelstadt, who now has 5 goals, also contributed.
Mittelstadt picked up his 4th assist on Ivan’s power-play goal in the second period. Mikko Rantanen added two assists, bringing his season total to 9. The Avalanche scored twice in the first period, two more in the second, and capped off their scoring with a final goal at 3:53 in the third period.
Defensively, the Avalanche will look to build on their previous game, where they allowed just one goal to Utah. Justus Annunen made 25 saves with a 96.2% save percentage, and Colorado’s defense added 2 takeaways and 27 hits. The only goal they allowed came at 15:28 in the 3rd period.

4* Free NHL Hockey Betting Prediction: Senators +1.5
For a moneyline pick, I’m taking the Senators to pick up on a win over the Avalanche and the road. With the moneyline sitting at +139, I’ll be locking in a bet on the Senators straight-up.
Our projections have the Senators pulling out a win as the underdog. But if you’re not as bullish as we are on the Senators, we’d recommend at least getting a bet down on them to cover the puck line.
For those looking at the over/under line set at 6.5 goals, our expectation is that this game will fly under that mark, and we suggest making a bet on the UNDER.
Two different narratives, one big night — will Ullmark find his rhythm, or will Annunen continue his solid form? Let’s get ready for a goaltending battle!
