Namestnikov was missing from practice on Thursday and his status for Friday's game vs. Florida is uncertain. Evgeny Svechnikov skated in his spot yesterday, so he could make his season debut if Namestnikov is unavailable.
The Senators originally traded a 2021 fourth-round pick for Namestnikov so they recoup that pick by sending him to the Avalanche. Namestnikov, who will be a UFA this summer, has scored 13 goals with 12 assists (25 points) in 56 games this season.
Namestnikov missed Thursday's game with an undisclosed injury but was back at practice on Friday, only to take a puck in the face and putting his status for Saturday's game in jeopardy. Head coach D.J. Smith wasn't sure if he would play but monitor his status during warmups at 1:30 pm ET.
Namestnikov was forced to leave last night's game vs. the Ducks and is questionable to play tomorrow vs. the Avalanche. Nick Paul is expected to return from an ankle injury to replace Namestnikov.
Namestnikov missed the last three games with a lower-body injury but will play Friday in Minnesota. Namestnikov, who has 12 points (6G / 6A) in 22 games this season, will skate with Artem Anisimov and Connor Brown on the Senators' third-line.
Namestnikov suffered a lower-body injury early in Wednesday's game in Montreal and will miss at least two games and J.C. Beaudin was called up from Belleville (AHL) to replace him.
Namestnikov had 11 goals and 20 assists (31 points) in 78 games with the Rangers last season. He has been held pointless through two games this season but has been buried in the Rangers bottom-6. With Ottawa, Namestnikov has a chance to carve out a top-6 role and that will go a long way in revamping his fantasy value.
Namestnikov is in concussion protocol and did not travel to Ottawa for Wednesday’s game. With Namestnikov out, Ryan Strome will be bumped into the Rangers top-6.
Namestnikov had a blistering start to the season picking up 33 points (15G / 18A) in his first 38 games but has struggled with just 11 points (5G / 6A) in his last 24. In New York he won’t have the luxury of playing with Steven Stamkos and Nikita Kucherov, but he should still play a top-6 role.
Namestnikov missed Saturday’s game vs. the Panthers, but was on the ice for the morning skate and head coach Jon Cooper said he is a “possibility” for tonight’s game in New York. Namestnikov has nine goals and 15 assists (24 points) in 62 games this season.
