Which team has won the Linus Ullmark trade so far? Here's our analysis of the early returns from the blockbuster deal between the Bruins and Senators.
But with Ullmark slated to start Saturday night in his return to Boston, now is a good time to look at the early returns from this trade.Ullmark was of course the centerpiece of the deal. The move helped the Bruins create some salary cap space and paved the way for Jeremy Swayman tofour-year, $33 million contract extension
It’s still very early in the season. Ullmark’s stats should improve – and potentially by a lot – but his early impact for Ottawa has been negative overall. And the Senators are hoping an improvement comes quickly because they entered Saturday with a 6-7-0 record, putting them in seventh place out of eight teams in the Atlantic Division.
But the Finnish netminder deserves a lot of credit. He’s been pretty solid thus far, posting a 3-2-0 record with a .900 save percentage and a 2.72 GAA in five starts. In fact, Korpisalo has turned away 84 of the last 90 shots he has faced, which is a .933 save percentage. The Bruins just need Korpisalo to be a reliable backup behind Swayman, and he has accomplished that objective so far.
He has two assists in six games for BC. He’s had a bunch of reps as the third-line center on a loaded Eagles roster that ranks No. 2 in the nation with a 5-1-0 record entering Saturday.
