Senators' Josh Norris to return Wednesday vs. Penguins: What it ... (The Athletic)

The Senators forward has been out with a shoulder injury since Oct. 22.

The Senators are opting to keep their current top unit of [Brady Tkachuk](https://theathletic.com/nhl/player/brady-tkachuk-L6j8PNJXBI1JiXTb/), [Drake Batherson](https://theathletic.com/nhl/player/drake-batherson-32lxEtbQCgJNJgCd/), [Tim Stützle](https://theathletic.com/nhl/player/tim-stutzle-CRn2u5X4ZCyEtzKM/), Alex DeBrincat and [Thomas Chabot](https://theathletic.com/nhl/player/thomas-chabot-85FV3zNRBL6JuepG/) intact — even though Norris scored a team-high 16 power-play goals with that unit last season. [Josh Norris](https://theathletic.com/nhl/player/josh-norris-9P4glgd2JDL2KxUQ/) is set to return to the lineup for Wednesday’s game versus the [Pittsburgh Penguins](https://theathletic.com/nhl/team/penguins/), [Senators](https://theathletic.com/nhl/team/senators/) coach D.J. While Norris is set to return on Wednesday against the Penguins, the Senators will not be welcoming Joseph back to their lineup. We had some good chemistry this morning and I’m excited to play with them.” Over parts of four seasons with the Senators and 130 career [NHL](https://theathletic.com/nhl/) regular-season games, Norris has amassed 53 goals and 92 points. Norris is not expected to take any faceoffs this evening against the Penguins. “That’s down the road,” Norris said of when he might start taking faceoffs again. “And I trusted the guy that ultimately we agreed with and I feel good right now. However, after consulting with multiple specialists, Norris opted for a rehabilitation route that allowed him to return this season. “It’s been a long time since I’ve put some skates on and played a game with these guys,” Norris told reporters Wednesday morning. Getting Norris back into Ottawa’s lineup should be a major boost for a Senators club that has struggled to score goals lately. Norris, 23, was drafted with the No.

Back the Over in Penguins vs. Senators (OutKick)

He is the guy they are sending into the net tonight. Goalie Casey DeSmith will mind the net and he's allowed at least two goals in five of his past six games.

They have lost four of their past five games and allowed at least three goals in four of their past five games. Maybe a sprinkle of over 6.5 and Senators parlay at +300 is in order. I also think the right side of this game is the Senators, but honestly that is more of a guess than anything. In seventeen starts this season, he’s allowed three or more goals in eleven of those games. Goalie Casey DeSmith will mind the net and he’s allowed at least two goals in five of his past six games. Yesterday we took home the moneyline with the Wild, but we pushed on the total as the Wild scored an empty netter in the final seconds and took the game to six.
