The Ottawa Senators’ captain, Brady Tkachuk, has missed recent games due to an injury but is expected to return for the playoffs, as reports indicate he is “good to go.” His injury, which caused dizziness, was clarified to be unrelated to a hit from Ryan Pulock during a game against the New York Islanders, and he has been cleared of concussion symptoms. Tkachuk has been pivotal for Ottawa, scoring 22 goals and 59 points in 60 games this season. In other Atlantic Division news, the Florida Panthers recalled defenseman Mikulas Hovorka, while conditional draft picks from trades are now impacting teams as the postseason approaches.
