Senators' Derick Brassard: 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.
Brassard was hurt late in the second period, and it appeared to be an ankle or lower-leg issue. The 35-year-old will be evaluated further, and it's possible the Senators end up shutting him down rather than rushing him back this late in the season.

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.

Senators' Derick Brassard: Credited with goal Monday
Brassard logged a goal on two shots in Monday's 5-2 win over the Panthers.
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 contests. The 35-year-old veteran is up to 13 goals and 23 points in 61 appearances this season.

Senators' Derick Brassard: Two goals in 1,000th career game
Brassard scored twice Thursday in a 5-3 win over the Rangers. It was his 1,000th NHL game.
He tipped in a pass from Mathieu Joseph at the midpoint of the second period and then tied the game just 1:36 into the third. Brassard is riding a four-game, six-point streak (three goals, three assists), and he has managed that in limited ice time -- he played just 11:55 on Thursday. Overall, Brassard has delivered 213 goals, 330 asists and 543 points in those 1,000 games.

Senators' Derick Brassard: Four points in last four games
Brassard had a goal and an assist in a 5-2 win over Montreal on Saturday.
He opened the game late in the first period when he tipped Nick Holden's shot from the point inside the left post. The 35-year-old Brassard has nine goals and 17 points in 46 contests this season, but four of those points (one goal, three assists) have come in his last four games. Brassard doesn't offer much category coverage and the points are few and very far between. Consider this little run the exception, not the rule.

Senators' Derick Brassard: Manages assist in loss
Brassard supplied an assist in Friday's 4-3 overtime loss to the Blackhawks.
A career journeyman, Brassard has underwhelmed with eight goals and six assists through 43 games, but the silver lining is that half of his points have come on the power play. The 35-year-old, whose salary is at the minimum $750,000 on a one-year pact, is scheduled to become an unrestricted free agent in the summer.

Senators' Derick Brassard: Scores in win
Brassard scored a goal on his lone shot in Tuesday's 4-0 win over Columbus.
Brassard opened the scoring on the power play, deflecting a Jake Sanderson shot past Joonas Korpisalo in the second period. It's Brassard's first goal since Dec. 8 and just his fourth point in his last 13 contests. The 35-year-old center will hold marginal value if he continues to play on the power play, where he's logged five of his 10 points (five goals, five assists) this season.

Senators' Derick Brassard: Capitalizes on turnover
Brassard scored a goal, logged two hits and added two PIM in Thursday's 4-3 overtime loss to the Stars.
Brassard got the Senators on the board after Drake Batherson found him following a Stars turnover in their own zone. The goal was Brassard's fourth of the season. He's been in and out of the lineup lately as a depth forward, and with seven points, 36 shots, 35 hits and a plus-3 rating in 18 contests, the 35-year-old can be safely left on the waiver wire in most fantasy formats.

Senators' Derick Brassard: Doubles season output in one game
Brassard scored a goal and added an assist in Friday's 5-1 win over Anaheim.
He scored off the rush late in the first period to push the score to 2-0; the goal stood as the eventual winner. It was Brassard's first multi-point game in over a year (Nov. 20, 2021). The points doubled his season total. Brassard is in the twilight of his career. He's on his eighth team since the start of the 2018-19 and is just 35 games shy of the magical 1,000 mark. Brassard's fantasy value is nil, but he should hit that game milestone this season, barring injuries and scratches.

Senators' Derick Brassard: Scores insurance goal
Brassard scored in his first game of the season Monday as the Senators upended Dallas 4-2.
Brassard was a healthy scratch in Ottawa's first five games of the season but centered the second line with Alex DeBrincat and Claude Giroux, as Josh Norris was unable to go due to a shoulder injury. Brassard saw 16:08 of action including 1:52 of power play time. He should continue to see time on the second line, as Norris is slated to be sidelined for at least two weeks.

Brassard (illness) is in the lineup for Saturday's preseason finale versus the Canadiens, per TSN 1200 Ottawa.

He is looking to parlay his PTO agreement into an NHL contract for the upcoming season. If he ends up sticking with the Senators, Brassard could fill a role as a bottom-six forward and power-play specialist.
