Ullmark will guard the home goal Wednesday versus the Panthers, freelance Senators reporter Graeme Nichols reports.

Ullmark will get the nod in what could be a contentious matchup as Brady Tkachuk makes his first trip back to Ottawa after forcing the team's hand for a trade. Ullmark has been strong this season with a 6-1-0 record, a 1.33 GAA and a .945 save percentage over seven outings. The Panthers are a tough test -- they've scored 21 goals over their last four games.
