SUNRISE, FLA. - The Senators will be without their first-line right winger and a Top-4 blue liner when they face the Florida Panthers at BB&T Center Tuesday night.
Bobby Ryan will miss his first game of the season after aggravating a broken finger he suffered in Montreal Dec. 12. In his place will be Binghamton callup Ryan Dzingel, who will slide into the fourth-line centre role between Shane Prince and Chris Neil.
Also missing the game will be Cody Ceci, who suffered an upper-body injury on the first shift of Sunday’s game against the Tampa Bay Lightning.
