Facing three-week absence Eller will be out of action for at least another three weeks after sustaining a broken foot, TSN 1200 Ottawa reports Wednesday.

Impact Eller has already missed the Sens' last two contests and four of the team's prior six outings.

Even when healthy, Eller has struggled to produce offensively, going 16 games without registering a point.

Impact Eller could return following a two-game stint on the shelf due to his undisclosed injury. Prior to getting hurt, the Dane was stuck in a 14-game pointless streak dating back to Oct. 30 versus the Flames. If Eller does play, it likely means Kurtis MacDermid will be dropped from the lineup.

Won't play versus Ducks Eller will be sidelined for Thursday's matchup with Anaheim, Bruce Garrioch of Postmedia reports.

Impact Eller appears to be dealing with an undisclosed injury, and the team has yet to release a clear timeline regarding the nature or severity of his injury. The veteran center is currently mired in a seven-game pointless streak during which he's managed a paltry four shots. With Eller on the shelf, Stephen Halliday looks poised to make his NHL debut against the Ducks.

Two-point effort Thursday Eller scored a shorthanded goal and added an even-strength assist in Thursday's 4-3 shootout win over the Flames.

Impact The 36-year-old center opened the scoring for Ottawa midway through the first period before setting up Artem Zub for a tally early in the third. It was Eller's first multi-point performance of the season, and after being held off the scoresheet through the first three games of the season, he's bounced back with two goals and six points in the last nine contests.

Nets goal in loss Eller scored a goal on three shots in Wednesday's 8-4 loss to the Sabres.

Impact Eller found the twine in the third period to pull the Senators within a goal, but the Sabres were able to right the ship with two tallies in a span of 1:02 after he scored. This was Eller's first point in four outings with the Senators. He's added four shots on net, seven hits, two blocked shots and a minus-2 rating while filling a bottom-six role. As more of a defensive center, he's not a particularly strong option in most fantasy formats.
