Saturday’s 6-3 defeat to the Edmonton Oilers could’ve been just another routine loss from which you could take a couple of positives, but it sure feels like there’s some otherworldly force out there that believes that anything good is too much for the 2022-23 Ottawa Senators (24-24-3).
After the game’s final goal, Anton Forsberg ended up on the ice in great pain and was carried off on a stretcher. Jake Sanderson has also been revealed to be out with an injury, albeit for two weeks instead of the rest of the season. Number-one center Josh Norris is still out, and the second half of the goalie tandem in Cam Talbot is not ready to return from his lower-body injury.
