""Not an easy decision. Could've been a few guys. Tonight it's Jens," Green said pregame. "For different reasons that stay within our room, maybe it's a matchup we like, it can change from night to night, too. Could be Jens tonight, could be someone else tomorrow.""
""This is one of those decisions that we put a lot of thought into, and it's not easy," Green said. "It's not an easy day for Jens either. I feel for him.""
Nick Jensen, 35, was a healthy scratch for the Ottawa Senators after struggling through a stretch of games and reduced minutes. Jensen arrived in Ottawa on July 1, 2024, in the trade that sent Jakob Chychrun to Washington. Jensen is averaging 16:42 of ice time this season, down from 20:13 last year, and has recorded one goal and seven assists in 37 games. Head coach Travis Green described the decision as difficult and based on internal reasons and matchups. Jakob Chychrun has thrived in Washington, leading defenders in goals and producing 29 points in 38 games.
