Ridly Greig - Suiting up Tuesday Greig (upper body) will be in action versus Utah on Tuesday, per NHL.com.

Impact Greig returns following a three-game stint on the shelf due to his upper-body issue. Prior to getting hurt, the 22-year-old center was pointless in his first two outings while registering just two blocks and a minus-2 rating despite averaging 2:24 of ice time with the man advantage. With Greig back, he should fill a bottom-six role in Tuesday's tilt.

Cole Reinhardt - Reassigned to AHL Belleville Reinhardt was sent down to the minors Tuesday.

Impact Reinhardt hasn't appeared in an NHL game this season, so his move to AHL Belleville shouldn't come as a surprise. In a corresponding move, the Senators recalled Leevi Merilainen to serve as the No. 2 backstop behind Anton Forsberg. Even with his demotion, Reinhardt should still be on the short list of potential call-ups this year.

Linus Ullmark - Deemed day-to-day Ullmark (strain) won't be in the lineup for Tuesday's road matchup against Utah, per TSN 1200 Ottawa.

Impact Ullmark was expected to be good to go following Monday's practice but isn't ready to return yet. He will miss his fourth straight game and is considered day-to-day. Ottawa brought up Leevi Merilainen from AHL Belleville on Tuesday to serve as Anton Forsberg's backup against Utah.

Anton Forsberg - Draws start Tuesday Forsberg will be between the pipes for Tuesday's road tilt versus Utah, according to TSN 1200 Ottawa.

Impact Forsberg will make his third start and fourth appearance of the campaign -- he's stopped 63 of 73 shots en route to a 1-1-0 record. The 31-year-old is Ottawa's de facto No. 1 at the moment while Linus Ullmark (strain) works his back from injury. Forsberg will take on a Utah club that is 4-1-1 through six games, while averaging 3.67 goals for per game.

Leevi Merilainen - Elevated from minors Merilainen was recalled from AHL Belleville on Tuesday to serve as the backup against Utah, TSN 1200 Ottawa reports.

Impact Merilainen's promotion comes as Anton Forsberg was confirmed as the starter Tuesday while Linus Ullmark (strain) remains on the shelf. With the team calling Ullmark day-to-day and no back-to-backs on the short-term schedule, Merilainen is unlikely to see any starts while up in the NHL.

Linus Ullmark - Ready to return Ullmark (strain) will return to the lineup in Tuesday's road matchup against Utah, Bruce Garrioch of Postmedia reports.

Impact Ottawa hasn't announced a starter yet, but it wouldn't be surprising to see Ullmark back between the pipes following a three-game absence. He has earned a 1-1-0 record this campaign, stopping 53 of 58 shots.

Ridly Greig - Possible for Tuesday Greig (upper body) is a possibility for Tuesday's matchup against Utah, TSN 1200 Ottawa reports.

Impact Greig was a full participant in Monday's practice. If he receives the green light to return from a three-game absence, he could occupy a bottom-six spot and get power-play time against Utah. Greig hasn't earned a point in two appearances this season. With David Perron (personal) away from the team, Cole Reinhardt might play Tuesday if Greig is unavailable.

David Perron - Away from team Head coach Travis Green said Monday that Perron is away from the team due to a personal matter, TSN 1200 Ottawa reports.

Impact Perron didn't participate in Monday's practice session, and it's not yet clear whether he'll be available for Tuesday's matchup against Utah. If the 36-year-old is unavailable Tuesday, Zack MacEwen could see an increased role for the Senators.

Mads Sogaard - Injured in minors Sogaard was hurt playing for AHL Belleville on Sunday and was helped off the ice with an apparent lower-body injury, Steve Warne of The Hockey News reports.

Impact Sogaard underwhelmed in his lone NHL appearance this season, conceding four goals on 17 shots in a wild win over the Kings on Oct. 14. While the news won't have an immediate impact on the Senators goaltending situation, Linus Ullmark (strain) is already dealing with an injury, which could force the team to use an EBUG behind Anton Forsberg versus Utah on Tuesday.

OCTOBER 21 • ROTOWIRE

Matthew Highmore - Designated for waivers Highmore (upper body) was placed on waivers by Ottawa on Monday, Elliotte Friedman of Sportsnet reports.

Impact In order to put Highmore on waivers, he would have needed to be medically cleared, meaning he should be ready to get back into the lineup. The 28-year-old center figures to start his season with AHL Belleville as he works his way back from injury but should be a strong candidate for a call-up later in the season.
