Right-winger Mark Stone will be missing from the Ottawa Senators’ lineup on a “week to week” basis, general manager Pierre Dorion said Monday.
Stone, who left last Thursday’s game against the Arizona Coyotes with a leg injury, is definitely out for Tuesday’s game against the Tampa Bay Lightning, Thursday’s contest versus the Chicago Blackhawks and for a home-and-away series against the Montreal Canadiens on Saturday and Sunday.
The good news for the Senators is that centre Kyle Turris is expected to return from his bruised finger for the game against Tampa, Dorion said. Turris travelled with the team on last week’s three-game road trip against Dallas, Arizona and Colorado, but didn’t play.
