As this space has touched on previously, the Ottawa Senators are open for business this offseason. With the NHL Entry Draft only three weeks away and free agency two days later, trade chatter is beginning in earnest.
Anton Forsberg had a bad season. His grade reflects how badly his season progressed. I guess I feel naïve in hindsight for thinking an NHL goalie could return from injuries to both MCLs and play the best hockey of his career.

Anton Forsberg made 18 saves and the host Ottawa Senators won their fourth game in a row, beating the Chicago Blackhawks 2-0 on Thursday night. Forsberg, who surrendered a combined 11 goals in his previous two starts, recorded his second shutout of the season and fifth of his nine-year NHL career, all coming in the past three seasons.
It was a back-and-forth affair. The Sens managed to overcome a 2-0 deficit in the second, but also gave up the tying goal late. However, they mostly outplayed the Golden Knights, and earned the shootout victory in a close game.

Cue the shuffle, the popular Ottawa Senators shuffle of goalies. Come to think about it, that has actually been one positive of the 2023-24 season. Despite subpar performances, at least there has been stability in who has minded the net for the Senators.
Anton Forsberg has left tonight’s game between the Ottawa Senators and Buffalo Sabres with a lower-body injury. Late in the first period, after a rush from Sabres’ forward Zach Benson, Forsberg made an awkward play that left him in a lot of pain.
Anton Forsberg made 45 saves in a 5-1 win for the Ottawa Senators against the visiting Buffalo Sabres on Sunday. Thomas Chabot had two assists for the Senators in his return to the lineup after missing 12 games with a fractured tibia.

Senators goaltender Anton Forsberg will be out 2-3 months with injuries to both knees but won't require surgery, the Ottawa Sun reported Monday.
