The red-hot Ottawa Senators picked up another win on Thursday, but there is some concern about captain Brady Tkachuk‘s status moving forward.
Tkachuk remained on the bench for the final seven minutes of a 6-3 win over the Boston Bruins.
After the game, head coach Travis Green said Tkachuk tweaked something in his hip but added that his captain is expected to play in the Senators’ next contest on Saturday against the Maple Leafs.
Tkachuk was banged up during the 4 Nations Face-Off and missed a week of games after the tournament.
Against the Bruins, he had an assist with two shots and three hits in 14:16 of ice time.
The win was Ottawa’s fifth-straight as they continue to pull away in the East’s wild-card race.
