Injuries Keep Coming For The Senators, But Ullmark Is Finally Ready
Six weeks into the NHL season, injuries have been a constant storyline for the Ottawa Senators.
Just as one player returns, another seems to go down, leaving head coach Travis Green with the challenge of maintaining consistency with a revolving door roster.
Nick Cousins is the latest addition to the injury list. Green says Cousins is expected to miss seven to ten days of action after taking a heavy hit from former Senator Jakob Chychrun during Tuesday's 3-2 overtime loss to Washington.
Just seeing how violently Cousins was hit, it's hard not feel like seven to ten days is an optimistic medical outlook. But if that comes to fruition, that would be great news for Cousins and the team.
