Senators' Jake Sanderson: Could return Saturday
Sanderson (undisclosed) might be available for Saturday's clash with the Maple Leafs after returning to practice Friday, Graeme Nichols of The Hockey News reports.
Sanderson appears to be trending in the right direction after missing several days of practice. The fact that the Senators sent Hoyt Stanley down to the minors also seems to indicate that Sanderson will be ready to suit up. If given the all-clear, the blueliner should take his spot on the top power-play unit.

Senators' Warren Foegele: Set to play Saturday
Foegele (undisclosed) will play in Saturday's Opening Night matchup against the Maple Leafs, Bruce Garrioch of Postmedia reports.
Foegele was placed on the injured non-roster list after dealing with an undisclosed issue for most of training camp. However, he's practiced recently and was on the top line during Friday's practice session. The 30-year-old appeared in 68 regular-season games between Los Angeles and Ottawa last year, recording 13 goals, four assists, 74 hits, 19 blocked shots and 18 PIM while averaging 13:46 of ice time.

Senators' Hoyt Stanley: Sent to minors
Stanley was loaned to AHL Belleville on Friday.
Stanley signed a three-year, entry-level deal with the Senators in March, but he'll be sent to the minors a day before the team's Opening Night matchup against Toronto on Saturday. He should have an opportunity to carve out a role in the NHL, while his demotion makes it seem likely that Jake Sanderson (undisclosed) will be available for the start of the regular season.

Senators' Andre Burakovsky: Shelved Saturday
Burakovsky will miss Saturday's matchup with Toronto due to an upper-body injury, Julian McKenzie of The Athletic reports.
Burakovsky notched 11 goals and 22 assists, including 10 power-play points, in 75 regular-season games last year. If Warren Foegele (undisclosed) is available Saturday, the Senators won't need to call up a player from the minors to replace Burakovsky.

Senators' Warren Foegele: Might be available for Saturday
Foegele (undisclosed) might be an option to play in Toronto on Saturday, per Bruce Garrioch of Postmedia.
Foegele had 13 goals and 17 points in 68 regular-season appearances with Los Angeles and Ottawa in 2025-26. If he's able to play Saturday, it will probably be as part of the Senators' top six.

Senators' Jake Sanderson: Misses another practice
Sanderson (undisclosed) wasn't on the ice for Wednesday's practice, per Julian McKenzie of The Athletic.
Sanderson left Saturday's preseason game against Montreal due to the injury. Although the significance of his injury has been downplayed, Sanderson hasn't practiced since, and the earliest he could potentially skate with his teammates is Friday. At this point, his status for Ottawa's season opener in Toronto on Saturday is unclear.

Senators' Warren Foegele: Placed on injured non-roster
Foegele (undisclosed) was placed on the injured non-roster list Monday.
Foegele participated in Monday's practice, which is a positive sign ahead of Saturday's season opener against Toronto. He recorded 13 goals, 17 points, 105 shots on net and 74 hits in 68 games between the Senators and Kings during the 2025-26 regular season.

Senators' Artem Zub: Suffers setback
Zub (knee) suffered a setback during training camp, according to Wayne Scanlan of Sportsnet on Monday.
Zub has been skating on his own, but he won't be ready for the start of the 2026-27 campaign. There is currently no timeline for his return. Zub registered five goals, 30 points, 92 shots on net, 57 PIM, 66 hits and 120 blocked shots in 81 regular-season appearances with Ottawa in 2025-26.

Senators' Andre Burakovsky: Doesn't practice Monday
Burakovsky didn't practice Monday due to an undisclosed injury, TSN 1200 Ottawa reports.
Burakovsky exited last Saturday's preseason finale against Montreal early after taking a hard hit, and while the nature of his injury isn't yet clear, it's discouraging that he hasn't yet returned to practice a few days later. It's not yet clear whether the 31-year-old will be available for Saturday's Opening Night matchup against the Maple Leafs.

Senators' Jake Sanderson: Expected to be fine
Sanderson (undisclosed) is fine despite sitting out Monday's practice, Wayne Scanlan of Sportsnet reports.
Sanderson is expected to participate in Tuesday's on-ice session. He left Saturday's 4-3 preseason win over Montreal for precautionary reasons. Assuming he avoids any setbacks, Sanderson should be available for Ottawa's season opener against Toronto on Saturday.
