If the Ottawa Senators didn't have bad luck they'd have no luck at all. After an offseason that included the addition of Claude Giroux, Cam Talbot & Alex DeBrincat one may have assumed that the team in Canada's Nations capital would have at least been a fringe playoff team, however as the trade deadline approaches it would appear they're a seller instead of a buyer.
That brings us to today. With approximately two weeks until the deadline, the Sens, may be forced to look for a goaltender.
During Ottawa's recent game versus the visiting Edmonton Oilers, Zach Hyman appears to be cross-checked into Senator's goalie Anton Forsberg. Forsberg falls awkwardly as the play continues and after the play is blown dead lays on the ice. A stretcher is deemed to be necessary to cart the Senators goaltender off the ice.
Ottawa General Manager Pierre Dorion released a statement that Forsberg has an MCL tear in both knees and is out indefinitely. He made a point to suggest that he will not require surgery, but no timetable for his return will be released.
