Status report
Ullmark, a goalie, is day to day and will miss his fourth straight game; Senators coach Travis Green called it "just erring on the side of caution.” ... Merilainen was recalled from Belleville of the American Hockey League on Tuesday and will dress as the backup. ... Greig returns after missing three games with an upper-body injury. … Bjugstad, a forward, continues to skate with Utah but has not yet been cleared to play.
