Brady Tkachuk, Josh Norris and Shane Pinto will miss the Senators' home game against the Jets on Wednesday, multiple media outlets reported.

Tkachuk is "hopeful" to play Wednesday against the Winnipeg Jets but doesn't want to "reaggravate" the injury.

Tkachuk confirmed he sustained the injury playing for the United States at the 4 Nations Face-Off. He skated on his own ahead of practice Tuesday, took one line rush with Claude Giroux and Tim Stutzle and then left practice, although he said that was part of the plan.

The Senators need more from their winger, whom Green pushed to be harder on pucks from as way back as last summer. Batherson scored a hat trick against the Anaheim Ducks in mid-December, which should’ve been an encouraging sign for his season. But he has scored only four goals in his next 28 games.

Holding the Eastern Conference's second wild-card spot entering Tuesday, the Ottawa Senators may have their captain back on Wednesday against the Winnipeg Jets after Brady Tkachuk practiced briefly Tuesday.

The Ottawa Senators might have their captain back Wednesday against the Winnipeg Jets after Brady Tkachuk practiced with his teammates, telling reporters after that "I'm feeling all right."

While the Ottawa Senators were hopeful that captain Brady Tkachuk would return to action against the Winnipeg Jets later tonight, however, it has just been confirmed that the star forward will not be in the lineup.
