On the injury front for the Ottawa Senators it seems Craig Anderson and Mark Stone will remain out for tonights clash with one of the best teams in the NHL.
The Blackhawks have an injury concern of their own. Second-line centre Artem Anisimov is expected to miss three to four weeks with a leg injury. The Russian has been prolific for the Illinois outfit this term with 45 points in 64 games, a huge year. His league average is 0.5 PPG whereas this year he has totalled 0.7 PPG. A big miss for the Hawks, and a player who is often overlooked, given their star-studded lineup.
