Robin Lehner Set to Make First Start in Goal for Senators

Filed under: Senators, Eastern

For the struggling Ottawa Senators, it's time to see what their young players can do.

They'll start with goaltender Robin Lehner. Fresh off a stint in the 2011 IIHF World Junio Championships, Lehner has been summoned from Binghamton (N.Y.) of the American Hockey League. He will make his first NHL start for the Senators Thursday night when they visit the Islanders.

Lehner, 19, played well at the World Juniors, shutting out eventual champion Russia 2-0 in the preliminary round and also beating silver medalist Canada 6-5 in a shootout.
