Status report

  • Greig did not skate with the Senators on Monday morning because he was sick. He is a game-time decision.
  • Stutzle, a forward, participated in the morning skate in a noncontact jersey and will miss his sixth straight game.
  • Ottawa recalled Ostapchuk from Belleville of the American Hockey League on Monday; he is expected to replace Kastelic, who was struck in the head by a puck Saturday.
