Senators recall goalie Jackson Parsons from AHL Belleville, Digi Mart USA News (Ottawa, Ontario): A goaltender from just outside Ottawa could get a chance to play for his local NHL team.
Jackson Parsons, a native of nearby Embrun, Ontario, has been recalled by the Senators from AHL Belleville, the club announced Tuesday.
Signed as an undrafted free agent in the summer of 2025, Parsons, 21, is 4-3-1 with a 2.64 goals-against average and a .916 save percentage with Belleville this season.
Last year, Parsons split time between Belleville and ECHL Allen.
The six-foot-two Parsons was named the CHL’s goaltender of the year and the OHL’s overage player of the year in 2024-25 with the Kitchener Rangers.
The Parsons recall comes two days after top Senators goalie Linus Ullmark was removed from the injured reserve list. In a corresponding move, Jonas Johansson was sent back down to the AHL.
However, the Senators announced that Sam Ersson will start Tuesday against the Washington Capitals, while Parsons will serve as backup.
Ottawa coach Travis Green said the team wanted to give Ullmark a few more days before he gets back in net.
