Ailing Ottawa Senators winger Brady Tkachuk doubtful for season opener
MONT TREMBLANT, Que. — Ottawa Senators first-round pick Brady Tkachuk is doubtful for Thursday’s season opener against the visiting Chicago Blackhawks, the team says.
The No. 4 overall pick in this year’s NHL draft, Tkachuk is nursing an undisclosed injury.
“It’s nothing serious, it’s a nagging little injury and we want to be cautious with it,” Senators general manager Pierre Dorion told reporters on Tuesday.
The American-born winger cracked the Senators’ roster at training camp.
