Status report
There were no morning skates. ... Talbot is expected to start for Sogaard, who was pulled after two periods Saturday against the Toronto Maple Leafs because he wasn't feeling well, Senators coach D.J. Smith said. Mandolese was recalled from Belleville of the American Hockey League after the game. … Gillies could make his Blue Jackets debut. He was acquired in a trade with the Arizona Coyotes on March 2. Hutchinson made 42 saves in a 7-0 loss to the Florida Panthers on Saturday.
