Ottawa Senators get bad news about Josh Norris injury
Ottawa Senators forward Josh Norris is expected to miss at least two weeks with an upper-body injury. The team is still waiting on MRI results to know the full extent of the injury.
Norris suffered a shoulder injury in the Senators' win over the Arizona Coyotes on Saturday. Norris lined up to take a defensive zone face-off against Travis Boyd. After taking the draw, Norris awkwardly fell to the ice and stayed down for a few moments before skating to the bench.
The 23-year-old has one goal and two points in five games this season. He hit career high numbers last season, with 35 goals and 55 points in 66 games.
Norris is in the first season on an eight-year, $63.6 million contract, which carries a $7.95 million cap hit, signed in July.
