Leaves game with LBI Brassard (lower body) won't finish Thursday's game versus the Flyers.

Impact The Senators didn't specify anything beyond lower-body injury, but Brassard's issue appeared to be with his ankle, Bruce Garrioch of the Ottawa Sun reports. This may be longer than a day-to-day situation, but it's unclear when the Senators will provide an update on Brassard's status.

Likely to miss time Brassard's lower-body injury is "not good" and he'll likely miss time, Bruce Garrioch of the Ottawa Sun reports.

Credited with goal Monday Brassard logged a goal on two shots in Monday's 5-2 win over the Panthers.

Impact Brassard's power-play tally in the first period was originally credited to Erik Brannstrom. However, it was determined that Brannstrom's shot ricocheted off Brassard's stick before sneaking past Sergei Bobrovsky. It's Brassard's second goal in his last three games, though he'd gone scoreless in his previous nine games. The 35-year-old veteran is up to 12 goals and 22 points in 60 games this season.
