Sens forward Josh Norris to miss at least two weeks due to injury; team awaiting MRI results

The Ottawa Senators announced on Monday that forward Josh Norris will miss at least the next two weeks with an upper-body injury and mentioned that they are still awaiting MRI results to know the full severity.

Norris, 23, suffered a shoulder injury in the third period of Saturday afternoon's game against the Arizona Coyotes. He left the game and did not return.

This is the third time that Norris has suffered an injury to his left shoulder. In early 2019, he needed surgery on his left shoulder after injuring it at the World Juniors and then earlier this year he missed 15 games after crashing into the boards in a game against Carolina.

In five games this season, Norris has two points (one goal, one assist), two penalty minutes and has an even-rating.

With Norris out, Derick Brassard will come into the lineup, making his season debut and skate on a line with Alex DeBrincat and Claude Giroux. Puck drop for Ottawa's tilt tonight with Dallas is set for 7 p.m. ET.
