His team, the Chicoutimi Saguen\u00e9ens, has just advanced to the semifinals after eliminating the Qu\u00e9bec Remparts in Game 4 of the second round. Beckman has been in goal for all eight playoff games. He remains undefeated, as evidenced by his 8-0 record. He has a goals-against average of 0.75 and a save percentage of .962. He recorded two consecutive shutouts to close out the series against Qu\u00e9bec.<\/p>\n<p>This marks a busy second spring for the young athlete, who is originally from Montreal.

His team, the Baie-Comeau Drakkar, fell in the second round to the eventual champions, the Moncton Wildcats.<\/p>\n<p>Beckman was selected in the 4th\u00a0round (97th\u00a0overall) by the Senators in the 2025 NHL Draft in Los Angeles.<\/p>\n<p>Visit the Senators website:\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.ottawasenators.com\" title=\"http:\/\/www.ottawasenators.com\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">www.ottawasenators.com<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Engage with\u00a0the Senators on X:\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.twitter.com\/senators\" title=\"http:\/\/www.twitter.com\/senators\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">@Senators<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Like the Senators on Facebook:\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/ottawasenators\" title=\"http:\/\/www.facebook.com\/ottawasenators\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">www.facebook.com\/ottawasenators<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Follow the Senators on Instagram:\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/instagram.com\/senators\" title=\"http:\/\/instagram.com\/senators\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">senators<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2013 end \u2013<\/p>\n<p>  <script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><script async src=\"\/\/www.instagram.com\/embed.js\"><\/script><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"OTTAWA\u00a0\u2013\u00a0Ottawa Senators\u00a0president of hockey operations and general manager Steve Staios announced\u00a0today that the team has agreed to terms&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":619232,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[194295],"tags":[49,48,20739],"class_list":{"0":"post-619231","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-ottawa","8":"tag-ca","9":"tag-canada","10":"tag-ottawa"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/619231","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=619231"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/619231\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/619232"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=619231"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=619231"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=619231"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
