Artem Zub Rejoins Senators Lineup Thursday
1 hour agoOttawa Senators defenseman Artem Zub (concussion) will be back in the lineup on Thursday against the Islanders. After recovering from a concussion, Zub was back in practice on Monday, and now he's ready for some game action. He has been limited to three appearances this season, sitting out nine games because of the concussion. The Russian blue-liner had a career year with 25 points (five goals, 20 assists) in 69 games last season, but he is primarily a physical force rather than an offensive threat. He will partner Jake Sanderson on the first defensive pairing, with Travis Hamonic dropping down to the third pairing. Jacob Bernard-Docker will be a healthy scratch on Thursday.
