The Ottawa Senators will get centre Josh Norris back for Saturday’s game against the Winnipeg Jets, head coach Jacques Martin told reporters.
Norris has missed the last four games with an upper-body injury he suffered against the Calgary Flames on Jan. 9. Norris suffered the injury after he stumbled over the Flames’ Elias Lindholm, causing him to cartwheel in the air, appearing to land on his head.
The 24-year-old missed nearly the entire 2022-23 season with a shoulder injury and suffered a setback in training camp, which forced him to miss three games to start this season. Norris has 12 goals and 20 points in 32 games this season.
Martin said Ridly Greig will keep his spot in between Brady Tkachuk and Claude Giroux with Norris slotting elsewhere in the lineup.
