Welcome to Ottawa Linus! I'm hoping he can finally be the starting goalie we've been looking for since Andy left. His friendship and chemistry with Forsberg looks very promising as well. They might bring out the best in each other and provide some friendly competition.
Wow... I love Swedish players for always being very transparent. They never disappoint as they are saying things like they are suppose to be said and don`t care if you like it or not. When he answered the question about his mindset of joining Ottawa this season and if it would change from the one he had for the past years with Boston. Right there he showed us the type of character he has and the mindset he will bring to others, and his leadership he will bring overall to the Sens. Just so impressed with the entire interview and I am really excited as an Sens fan to have him on our team. GO SENS GO!
Bruins fan since 1976 here and I've got a goalie fetish. Through the decades the B's always have excellent goalies. Linus is one of them. He's a tall dude built like a pro tennis player, seems to be an excellent athlete who's smart, agile and flexible. Always in position and square to the shooter. Reads plays at high levels and never plays a lazy style. His 2ish years in Boston were highly impressive. He was World Class 2 seasons ago and dominated the 22-23 season winning the Vezina. He was terrific this year as well for the Bruins. Sens just got a terrific person and elite goalie. Linus is the real deal.
Die hard Canucks fan here but Sens has always been my second team that I cheer for so I'm really stoked that Ullmark is a Sens now. I think he is a very good goalie and I truly believe the Sens has really raised to another level and gotten significantly better by having him as their goaltender now. Let's Go Senators Baby!!
Yeah he will never complain or get upset about anything. We got to know him well in Boston and we know what you are getting with Ullmark, and you have no idea what you're in for with this guy in goal.
The Sens are exceptional at winning the offseason Stanley Cup for outstanding achievement in the field of bringing in names that give their fans a huge sense of false hope lmfao.
I cannot deny this. But this time it‘ll work! Honestly, I think it‘s more a leadership and softness problem. None of the stars can take hits beyond Brady. But he doesn‘t seem to have the leadership skills to back up his rough play so it amounts to nothing more than whining. There shoudn‘t be a skill on paper problem. It seems to be a heart problem to me.
I wonder if Toronto was on his list of no movement, He kind of alluded to that in the podcast appearance. So many good goalies have come to Toronto and their career tanked..
Nice to hear we weren’t on his list but on the other hand if Ottawa was on his list and he then made the decision to come here I would fell better about our chances of signing him to an extension.
You have no idea what you are in for this year. Most of you Senators fans have no clue. You now have one of the top 5 goalies in the league. If he stays healthy all year, and your team manages an average of 2.15 goals a game, you are headed to the playoffs. Guaranteed. He's a good fit in Ottawa, and we are all happy he found a home. It's about goddamn time this team reaches the playoffs for once. It's not fair to the fans. Sounds like management smartened up and made sure they got a good goalie that can carry them. This will be a dangerous team.
Linus, you’re truly a class act unbelievable human and player. I got the opportunity to meet you on the road last year in Arizona as a Bruins fan. You were very gracious. Good luck with your new endeavors, thanks for all the excitement you brought us here in Boston for a couple years. Ottawa is getting a really good one
Linus has a great sense of humor. He will be missed in Boston. Look forward to checking in on him in Ottawa in the upcoming season. Hopefully he can get a contract extension done with Ottawa before the season starts. Good luck in Ottawa Linus - except when you play the Bruins.😅 That will be fun. Ullmark vs Swayman.
We wouldn’t trade a thousand Korpisalo’s for one Ullmark. You did everything right in Boston and there is absolutely no hard feelings and we are wishing you the best in Ottawa and the remainder of your career.
I just hope people don't think Sens are a playoff team because of Ullmark. If nothing gets done on defense, which was god awful last year. Itll be the same thing. They need those shutdown guys.
Flames fan here, just wanted to congratulate Ottawa on landing Linus! I knew he was a great goalie, but after watching this, it turns out he's also a 10/10 beauty.
Welcome to Ottawa Linus 🎉. When you compare this introductory press conference to korpisalos last season it’s so much more convincing. He seems so much more confident and convincing. Real good vibes coming from Linus, let’s get him locked up long term Ottawa 👍
The Sens have an oppurtunity with Linus, great goalie but even a better human being. Treat him welland ye shall reap the benifits. This guy is a winner on and off the ice.
Welcome to Canada Mr. Ullmark. You should know that the Ottawa community will welcome you with open arms. As an Ottawa Senator fan, and an original six Boston fan I know you will bring the Bruin attitude to us. See you in the Cup Run next year.
Leave it to Bruce to ask a complete dumbass question like that at the end LMFAO. Linus saved it though by giving an answer with depth. this guy is super charismatic
Other than Ian I'm begging the other local reporters and you know who you are NOT to be a prick to this guy! We finally have a bona fide #1 let him play!!
Linus is the man!! Going to miss him a lot! Thanks for all your hard work and great play… needless to say you will be very much missed….maybe resign next year😂
Well… look deeper into his stats and delivery during his years in an ever ongoing rebuild project in Buffalo. Maybe you’ll discover what the Bruins organization actually saw back then.
