Smith speaks on Chychrun's injury

Smith disclosed recently obtained Jakob Chychrun would be watching from the press box for a couple of weeks with what he described as a lower-body injury.

While Chychrun has only played in twelve games for the Senators, he's contributed with two goals, three assists, and eight penalties minutes while also going a -1,

The oft-injured Chychrun is no stranger to sitting on the sidelines nursing wounds however when inserted into a lineup has the ability to be game-changing as a two-way defenceman.


Smith also updated the status of forward Ridly Grieg suggesting that the forward would miss the remainder of the regular season with a sternum injury.
