Murray is working his way back from a head/neck injury that he suffered on October 23rd vs. the Rangers. It looks likely that Murray will start one of the Senators' back-to-back games on Monday or Tuesday. I would bet Filip Gustavsson will start Monday and Murray goes Tuesday in Minnesota to give him an extra day of recovery.



Kakko returns after a four-game absence to take on the Blue Jackets at MSG. Kakko, who has no points in three games, will be back on the second line with Ryan Strome and Artemi Panarin.

Kakko has missed the last four games with an upper-body injury but is expected to play Friday vs. the Blue Jackets. When asked after Thursday's practice, Kakko said "I'm ready to play." He'll skate on the second line with Ryan Strome and Artemi Panarin.



Tolvanen was hurt early in Sunday's game in Minnesota but will be available for Tuesday's game vs. San Jose. Tolvanen has had a quiet start to the season, scoring just one goal with no assists in six games. His shot volume (3.33 SOG/gm) is an encouraging sign that the goals could start to pour in.

Murray was hurt late in Saturday's game vs. the Rangers in a collision with Chris Kreider. Murray was removed and Anton Forsberg finished the game for the Senators. Look for Forsberg and Filip Gustavsson to man the Senators net moving forward.
