Nick Jensen an Option for Preseason Finale

Ottawa Senators defenseman Nick Jensen (hip) is on track to be available for opening night and could suit up for Saturday's preseason finale against the Montreal Canadiens. Senators head coach Travis Green said Thursday that he hopes to have Jensen in the lineup for the game. The veteran defenseman has sat out the preseason so far while recovering from an offseason hip procedure. He began practicing fully last week, so it appears that the team has been cautious with him to avoid risking a setback in Jensen's recovery. Jensen moved to Ottawa last year and played well with the team. He finished the season with 21 points (three goals, 18 assists), 77 shots, 95 blocks, 55 hits, and a plus-18 rating across 71 appearances.

Nick Jensen in Danger of Missing Start of Season

Ottawa Senators defenseman Nick Jensen (hip) may not be ready for the start of the 2025-26 season. According to Senators head coach Travis Green, it's "too early to tell" whether Jensen can recover in time for the season opener. The veteran blue-liner had hip surgery during the offseason. Jensen was Mr. Reliable on the blue line for Ottawa last season, posting 21 points (three goals, 18 assists) in 71 games with 95 blocks and a team-high plus-18 rating. Jensen's absence at the beginning of the season would give more playing time to highly-rated prospect Carter Yakemchuk.

Nick Jensen Recovering From Lower-Body Procedure

Ottawa Senators defenseman Nick Jensen has undergone surgery for a lower-body injury, Postmedia's Bruce Garrioch reports. Sources told Garrioch that there is no timeline for Jensen's recovery, but the procedure "went as planned." During his exit interview earlier this month, Jensen said that he was "hopeful" he would be available for the start of training camp. Jensen plays a steady yet unspectacular game that does not translate well to fantasy hockey. He finished the 2024-25 campaign with 21 points (three goals, 18 assists), 77 shots, 95 blocks, and 55 hits, while recording a team-high plus-18 rating.

Nick Jensen A Game-Time Decision On Tuesday

Ottawa Senators defenseman Nick Jensen (lower body) is viewed as a game-time decision for Tuesday's contest against the Buffalo Sabres. Jensen has missed the previous four contests due to this injury. If he were to return, fantasy managers should expect the 34-year-old to have a role on the bottom defensive pairing. Before his injury, Jensen tallied one point over his last four contests with three hits and six blocked shots. Through 60 total games this season, Jensen found the back of the net three times and added 16 helpers. However, even though he has limited offensive upside, he does carry value in deeper category formats given his ability to block shots, as he has tallied 74 this season. He will likely replace Nikolas Matinpalo in the starting lineup.

Nick Jensen Remains Out On Saturday

Ottawa Senators defenseman Nick Jensen (lower body) will miss a fourth consecutive game on Saturday against the New Jersey Devils. After sitting out some time due to a lower-body injury, Jensen was trending toward returning to the lineup against the Devils, and he was considered a game-time decision. However, the veteran blue-liner will sit out at least one more game. Travis Hamonic (undisclosed) will remain in the lineup as Jensen's replacement. He didn't complete Thursday's clash against the Colorado Avalanche but will work with Thomas Chabot on the second defensive pairing on Saturday. Hamonic is not a good fantasy option due to limitations in his offensive game.

Nick Jensen Not Playing On Thursday

Ottawa Senators defenseman Nick Jensen (lower body) will remain sidelined on Thursday evening against the Colorado Avalanche. Jensen has missed the previous two contests due to this injury. Jensen will look to return to action on Saturday when the Senators travel to New Jersey to face the Devils. While Jensen remains out this evening, fantasy managers should expect Nikolas Matinpalo to remain in the starting lineup. Before his injury, Jensen tallied one point (one helper) over his last seven contests. During this stretch, Jensen added four hits with 12 blocked shots. Through 60 total games this season, the 34-year-old has found the back of the net three times and added 16 helpers with 47 hits and 74 blocked shots. When he does return, he will only carry value in deeper formats that reward blocked shots.

Nick Jensen Not Expected To Play On Tuesday

Ottawa Senators defenseman Nick Jensen (lower body) is still limited by this injury and is not expected to play on Tuesday against the Montreal Canadiens. Fantasy managers should monitor his status during Tuesday's morning skate, but it appears the 34-year-old will likely miss his second-straight contest. If he were to miss this game, Jensen would then be hoping to return on Thursday to face the Colorado Avalanche. Before his injury, Jensen tallied one point (an assist) with three hits and six blocked shots over his last four contests. Through 60 total contests this season, Jensen has found the back of the net three times and added 16 helpers. He has logged 74 blocked shots and added 47 hits. When he does return, he will only have value in deeper formats that reward blocked shots.

Nick Jensen Continues Prolific Month In Friday's Win

Ottawa Senators defenseman Nick Jensen scored a goal and bagged an assist as the team took down Carolina 3-0 on Friday night. Jensen's work helped Shane Pinto start the scoring early in the second period, and he then popped up with a goal himself with 5:15 remaining in regulation. This was the second multi-point performance of the season for Jensen, who's been quietly effective on the Senators blue line with 13 points (two goals, 11 assists) and a team-best plus-15 rating in 29 outings. Five of his points (one goal, four assists) have come in six December appearances. Jensen also boasts 31 blocks and 34 hits for the campaign, so he's chipping in at both ends during his first season in Canada.

Rasmus Sandin, Nick Jensen Likely For Game 4

Washington Capitals defensemen Rasmus Sandin and Nick Jensen are both on track to return for Game 4 of the team's first-round series versus the New York Rangers on Sunday. Both defensemen have been sidelined by upper-body injuries and have yet to appear in the series. "On track to play tonight, so we'll see how the rest of the day goes. Looking optimistic," Capitals head coach Spencer Carbery said after Sunday's morning skate. "It should help us a bunch. Two guys that have been in our lineup the majority of the year." Sandin hasn't played since April 7 while Jensen has been out since April 13. The Capitals need a win on Sunday to avoid elimination.

Nick Jensen Could Be Back In Action Friday

Washington Capitals defenseman Nick Jensen (upper body) skated in a regular jersey Friday morning and could return to the lineup for Friday's Game 3 against the Rangers. The 33-year-old had been out for four games with an upper-body injury. Jensen had the second-most blocks on the squad during the regular season (123) and finished with 14 points (one goal, 13 assists) across 78 games. He's yet to register any points through 26 career playoff appearances.

Nick Jensen, Rasmus Sandin Not Ready To Return

Washington Capitals defensemen Nick Jensen (upper body) and Rasmus Sandin (upper body) will remain out for Game 2 against the Rangers on Tuesday. Both players missed the end of the regular season with upper-body injuries and still need a bit more time to recover. Jensen misses a third consecutive game, and Sandin's absence stretches to six games. The injuries have left Washington very thin at the back. As a result, Lucas Johansen will make his Stanley Cup Playoffs debut on Tuesday. The younger brother of former All-Star Ryan Johansen has posted two points in nine regular-season appearances in the NHL.

Rasmus Sandin, Nick Jensen Possible For Game 1

Washington Capitals defensemen Rasmus Sandin and Nick Jensen both practiced in noncontact jerseys on Saturday and are possibilities for Game 1 of their first-round series against the top-seeded New York Rangers on Sunday. Both players have been sidelined with upper-body injuries and skated on their own on Thursday and Friday before joining the team for Saturday's session. "Trending in the right direction," bench boss Spencer Carbery said on Saturday. "Both practiced today and were a part of essentially everything we did on the ice, so it's a good step." Sandin notched three goals and 23 points in 21:07 of average ice time per game while Jensen tallied one goal and 14 points in 19:38 of ice time per game across 78 contests on the season.

Anthony Mantha, Nick Jensen Game-Time Decisions For Capitals Monday

Washington Capitals forward Anthony Mantha and defenseman Nick Jensen are both listed as game-time decisions for Monday's contest versus the visiting Ottawa Senators. Mantha departed Saturday's game against the Florida Panthers in the third period and did not return. Jensen left in the first period but returned in the second and finished his team's 3-2 overtime loss. "I think Mantha, good chance. Jensen, we'll see," Capitals head coach Spencer Carbery said. Mantha has recorded 18 goals and 29 points across 52 games, already surpassing the 11 goals and 27 points he put up last season. Jensen is without a goal with eight assists across 56 games on the season, blocking 85 shots in the process. He posted a career-best 29 points a season ago.

Nick Jensen A Game-Time Call Friday

Washington Capitals defenseman Nick Jensen (undisclosed) is considered a game-time call for Friday's game against St. Louis. He left Wednesday's meeting with Buffalo due to an undisclosed injury and it's not clear if Jensen can play versus the Blues. Gabriel Carlsson is set to be Jensen's replacement on the Washington blue line on Friday if the versatile defenseman hasn't been able to get himself game-ready. Carlsson has played in only three NHL games this season, posting two assists.

Nick Jensen Injured On Wednesday

Washington Capitals defenseman Nick Jensen sustained an undisclosed injury in Wednesday's matchup against Buffalo. He left in the third period after soaking in 17:15 of action. Jensen had three shots on goal in the contest with one block, one hit and two penalty minutes. The 32-year-old was playing in only his third game since returning from an upper-body injury, so he will be very frustrated if he has to sit on the sidelines again. The team has yet to prove an update on Jensen's status. The jack-of-all-trades defenseman has tallied 24 points, 89 shots, 94 hits and 113 blocks across 66 outings this season.

Martin Fehervary, Nick Jensen Injured On Wednesday

The Washington Capitals had to finish Wednesday's game against Anaheim with four defensemen after Martin Fehervary (lower body) and Nick Jensen (upper body) exited with injuries. Jensen too only three shits and left in the first period and Fehervary had to leave in the third. Despite being shorthanded, Washington showed great character by finding a way to win, collecting the two points with a 3-2 scoreline in overtime. Both Jensen and Fehervary have been great assets defensively for the Capitals, and the former has also made an impact on offense, registering 24 points across 63 games. Fehervary leads the team with 163 hits and has recorded 93 blocks. Rasmus Sandin couldn't make his debut Wednesday due to immigration issues, but he could be carrying a very big load straight away for his new team if Jensen and Fehervary are sidelined for the next games. They are considered day-to-day for now.

Nick Jensen Adds Two Points In Capitals Win

Jensen has skated in 24 Capitals contests this year, recording two goals and eight assists. He is averaging just over 17:00 minutes of ice time per game while adding 29 shots on goal. He is paired with veteran defenseman Zdeno Chara. Washington has Sunday off before they take on the struggling Buffalo Sabres on Monday.
