The Senators added Anton Forsberg to the COVID-19 protocol list on Monday (Dec.27).

Forsberg joins Filip Gustavsson in protocol, which left the Senators with no goalies in Monday's practice. They recalled Matt Murray from the AHL on Tuesday and he would be in-line to start Friday if Forsberg and Gustavsson are unavailable.

The Sabres placed Dylan Cozens in COVID-19 protocol on Sunday.

Cozens and Mark Jankowski were placed on the COVID-19 protocol list on Sunday, joining Zemgus Girgensons, Jeff Skinner and Vinnie Hinostroza, who were on the list prior to the Christmas break. Cozens and Jankowski will likely be out until the middle of next week--the other three are eligible to come off earlier.
