His absence of Ottawa caused a lot of Angst among fans, and they will be a little more worried with this lack. For valuable, we believe in this situation, regardless of the disease, on the list and all accounts.

Ottawa head coach Travis Green, in the morning of the Ryan tomb of Pittsburgh penguins in Friday, TKACACHUK was not injured in Tkachuk, he said.

“I hope that today is skate, but he is not going,” the green, senators were distributed with experience and engaged in ice-ice training. “It’s all about everything I can say about it.”

It may not be the worst scenario that missed him for a while. It was a hip nurse that was injured while playing for the team in 4 nations, so it is an opportunity to bring it to the post-season this season.

The competition against lightning was the fourth tkachuk kidnapped this season, but the first time the senators won without it. He also guides 29 clubs a leading goal of the clubs, but also the goal of power game with 14 years.

Saturday will have a difficult test for match senators with Panthers.

It will play the third and final, the game between this season. Ottawa won 3-1 on Florida in the house key in October 10 and lost 5-1 in Sunrisation on February 8.

“There are a lot of skates, many skates, and the rear ends are very dynamic,” Panthers technical director Paul Maurice said after the skate of his team after the skate of Friday. “As a team, age comes.

“We prepared a bunch of high for the year, and then paid the price of this development, and now the players on the back end and start to start some young children.”

Not only Panthers without Matthew tkachuk, they will not be Captain Alexander Barkov for them. He was exposed to the upper body injury against Montreal on Tuesday, but he finished this game.

Barkov, Tuesday in 3-2 losses, did not oppose Toronto Maple leaves and Maurice will not play this weekend, he said.

“It’s not serious, but it doesn’t play this weekend,” Maurice said.

Senators are able to move closer to provide a playoff location with victory over the panthers. Their postseason is 99 percent to have the first time since 2017, but nothing is official.

The good news is that the senators were six six of the last seven games at home and this season came to the center of the Canadian Tire 22.

Green is happy to be home for this stretch. Senators have paid a price at a price with a long road trip due to the IIHF World Youth Championship in Ottawa.

“We have already achieved a better home record than the road notes, which is often in the NHL,” he said. “This stretching was long. We did not have much time in Ottawa, and we did not last long while playing.

“Now we put two feet on the ground and we are home for a while and we love playing at home.”
