Top Nick Jensen News

  • Senators' Nick Jensen: Puts up helper Sunday

    Jensen provided an assist, two shots on goal and three blocked shots in Sunday's 4-3 shootout loss to the Ducks.

    Jensen forced a turnover and quickly started the transition up the ice, leading to Brady Tkachuk's second goal of the game. The helper ended a five-game point drought for Jensen, though offense is not his primary purpose on the Senators' second pairing. The 34-year-old blueliner has a goal, eight assists, 34 shots on net, 31 hits, 23 blocked shots and a plus-11 rating over 24 outings in a shutdown role.

  • Senators' Nick Jensen: Bags two apples in loss

    Jensen picked up two assists Tuesday in a 5-2 loss to Edmonton.

    He's not much of a fantasy scorer -- his best season came in 2022-23 when he scored five goals and added 24 assists in 77 games with the Caps. So this was a nice one-off for the defender. Jensen usually gets under the skin of opponents, which he did Tuesday. Vasily Podkolzin rubbed him into the boards in the second and rode him right into the stanchion by the Oilers bench. Jensen left and returned for the third.

  • Senators' Nick Jensen: First goal of season

    Jenson scored a goal Thursday in a 4-2 loss to the Islanders.

    It was Jensen's first goal of the season and first as a Sen. It was also his first point in six games. He isn't known for his offense, but he looked every part the scorer Thursday. Jensen walked in from the point and beat a screened Semyon Varlamov with a wrist shot glove side. He does have six points in 13 games this season, but don't expect that pace to continue. Jensen is a minute-munching defender whose best season came two years ago with 29 points in 77 games with the Caps. Last season, he put up one goal and 13 assists with 71 shots in 78 games.

  • Senators' Nick Jensen: Provides pair of assists

    Jensen notched two assists, two hits and a plus-3 rating in Tuesday's 4-0 win over Utah.

    Jensen has four helpers over six contests while seeing time in a second-pairing role. The defenseman helped out on the Senators' first two goals Tuesday, which were scored by Drake Batherson and Claude Giroux. Jensen has added eight hits, five blocked shots, six shots on net and a plus-3 rating this season, though he's often chipped in a bit more in the physical categories, having topped 100 hits and blocked shots twice each over the last three seasons.

  • Senators' Nick Jensen: Earns first helper in new colors

    Jensen logged an assist, two shots on goal and a minus-2 rating in Saturday's 4-1 loss to the Canadiens.

    Jensen's helper on a Tim Stutzle goal was the former's first point as a Senator. The defenseman was traded from Washington in a deal that sent Jakob Chychrun to DC. Jensen has less scoring upside than the player he was traded for, instead providing steady defense in a top-four role. The 34-year-old has added four shots on net, two hits and one blocked shot through his first two games with Ottawa.

  • Senators' Nick Jensen: Heading north in trade

    Jensen was acquired by the Senators from the Capitals on Monday along with a 2026 third-round draft pick in exchange for Jakob Chychrun.

    Jensen had a goal, 14 points, 62 hits and 123 blocked shots in 78 regular-season contests with the Capitals in 2023-24. While Jensen might earn a top-four role with Ottawa, he shouldn't be expected to come close to replacing Chychrun's offensive contributions. The 33-year-old Jensen has two seasons left on his three-year, $12.15 million deal.

  • Capitals' Nick Jensen: Good to go Sunday

    Jensen (upper body) is in Sunday's lineup against the Rangers, Stephen Whyno of the Associated Press reports.

    As expected, Jensen will return from a five-game absence and make his first appearance of the postseason. He tallied 14 points while averaging 19:38 of ice time in 78 games during the regular season. Jensen will skate in a top-four role Sunday as the Capitals look to avoid a first-round sweep.

  • Capitals' Nick Jensen: Probable for Game 4

    Jensen (upper body) will be a game-time call, but he's trending towards playing Sunday against the Rangers, Tom Gulitti of NHL.com reports.

    Jensen has yet to suit up in the series after missing Washington's final two regular-season games with an upper-body injury. Jensen's return would provide an important boost to the Caps' defensive corps, with Trevor van Riemsdyk (upper body) ruled out. The 33-year-old Jensen had a goal, 14 points and 123 blocked shots in 78 games this year.

  • Capitals' Nick Jensen: Unavailable Friday

    Jensen (upper body) will not suit up against the Rangers for Game 3 on Friday, Stephen Whyno of the Associated Press reports.

    Jensen has now missed five straight games. The veteran blueliner tallied 14 points in 78 games during the regular season. Another update on his status should surface prior to Game 4 on Sunday.

  • Capitals' Nick Jensen: Game-time call Friday

    Jensen (upper body) will be a game-time decision ahead of Game 3 against the Rangers on Friday, Tom Gulitti of NHL.com reports.

    Jensen was finally able to ditch the non-contact jersey at Friday's game-day skate, which would seem to indicate he'll be back sooner rather than later. Still, coach Spencer Carbery wouldn't confirm that the blueliner will play in Game 3. Even if he does suit up, fantasy players probably shouldn't be expecting much offensively out of Jensen considering he went pointless in seven straight games before getting hurt.

  • Capitals' Nick Jensen: Still sidelined Tuesday

    Jensen (upper body) will not be in the lineup against the Rangers for Game 2 on Tuesday, Peter Baugh of The Athletic reports.

    Jensen was still sporting a non-contact jersey at Tuesday's game-day skate, per Emily Kaplan of ESPN, so he should probably be considered questionable at best heading into Game 3 on Friday. It will be Jensen's third straight match on the shelf due to his upper-body issue. With Rasmus Sandin (upper body) and Vincent Iorio (upper body) also unavailable, Lucas Johansen will make his NHL postseason debut.

  • Capitals' Nick Jensen: Might play in Game 2

    Jensen (upper body) could rejoin the lineup versus the Rangers for Game 2 on Tuesday, Tom Gulitti of NHL.com reports.

    Jensen was bogged down in a seven-game point drought prior to suffering his upper-body injury. During the regular season, the 33-year-old Minnesota native notched just 14 points in 78 games, failing to reach the 20-point threshold for the first time in three years.

  • Capitals' Nick Jensen: Won't play Sunday

    Jensen (upper body) won't suit up Sunday for the Caps' playoff opener against the Rangers, Bailey Johnson of The Washington Post reports.

    Jensen missed Washington's final two regular-season games after suffering an upper-body injury. The 33-year-old blueliner had one goal and 14 points with a minus-9 rating in 78 games this year. With both Jensen and Rasmus Sandin (upper body) out, Alexander Alexeyev, Dylan McIlrath and Vincent Iorio will round out Washington's defensive corps.

  • Capitals' Nick Jensen: Skating before practice Saturday

    Jensen (upper body) skated in a non-contact jersey before practice Saturday, according to Tom Gulitti of NHL.com.

    Jensen was stretchered off the ice a week ago against Tampa Bay and missed the last two games of the regular season. Jensen will have to get better in a hurry if he hopes to play in Game 1 versus the Rangers on Sunday. Jensen had 14 points, 62 hits and 123 blocked shots in 78 games during the regular season. Should Jensen be unable to play, expect to see Vincent Iorio remain in the lineup.

  • Capitals' Nick Jensen: Could play Sunday

    Jensen (undisclosed) was at morning skate Thursday, suggesting he could be available for Game 1 versus the Lightning, per Stephen Whyno of the Associated Press.

    Jensen sat out the last two games of the season after he was stretchered off the ice Saturday versus Tampa Bay. He had a goal, 13 assists, 123 blocked shots and 62 hits in 78 appearances during the regular season. Look for Jensen to be a game-time decision Sunday in Game 1 versus the Rangers.

  • Capitals' Nick Jensen: Won't return in regular season

    Jensen (undisclosed) was spotted at the Capitals facility Sunday, but he'll miss their remaining two regular-season games, Bailey Johnson of The Washington Post reports.

    It's encouraging to see Jensen back with the team Sunday considering he had to leave the ice on a stretcher after crashing into the boards in Saturday's game versus Tampa Bay. While the blueliner will miss the Caps' remaining two regular-season contests, he could return for the playoffs, should Washington qualify. Jensen will wrap up the campaign with one goal, 14 points and a minus-9 rating across 78 games.

  • Capitals' Nick Jensen: Stretchered off Saturday

    Jensen (undisclosed) is conscious, alert and has the use of all his extremities, according to the Capitals. He was stretchered off the ice in the first period of Saturday's game against the Lightning.

    Jensen crashed violently into the boards after absorbing a hit from Lightning winger Michael Eyssimont and was motionless on the ice for several minutes before being stretchered off. The 33-year-old defenseman could be in store for a lengthy absence even if the Capitals manage to secure a playoff spot in the waning days of the 2023-24 season.

  • Capitals' Nick Jensen: Bags two apples

    Jensen recorded two assists and three shots during Monday's 5-2 win over the Flames.

    Jensen had gone five games without hitting the scoresheet prior to Monday's outing. The 33-year-old has managed just one goal and 11 points in 65 appearances this season and his fantasy stock has receded as a result.

  • Capitals' Nick Jensen: Scores first of season

    Jensen scored a goal on three shots in Thursday's 6-0 win over Pittsburgh.

    Jensen extended the Caps' lead to 3-0 early in the second period, poking a rebound past Tristan Jarry for his first goal and ninth point in 59 games this season. The 33-year-old Jensen had just one point in 16 games coming into Thursday's contest. It's been a relatively quiet year offensively for Jensen after he posted a career-high five goals and 29 points last season.

  • Capitals' Nick Jensen: Returning to action Friday

    Jensen (lower body) will be in the lineup Friday versus the Flyers, per Tom Gulitti of NHL.com.
