\u0022We can\u0027t wait to have him back because he\u0027s one of our best players.\u0022
Before Norris gets clearance to play, he’ll need to meet the medical staff one more time.
“I don’t know if it will be Wednesday, but he’s going to skate again and we’ll see how he is,” coachtold reporters here at the club’s hotel. “We’ll make a decision from there. It’s a touch-and-go timeline and we’re going to make sure he’s 100 per cent.Article contentGetting Norris back would mean a lot for the Senators. He was the No. 1 centre coming into this season and losing him in Game 5 has hurt the club’s depth in the middle.
“He’s taken huge steps between this year and last year,” said Smith. “Every time he comes up, he’s a little bit better. Eventually, he’s going to come up, he’ll stick and he’ll be a really good NHL player. That’s part of his development and let’s hope this is the time.”“He’s good defensively,” Smith said. “He can make a first pass and also get pucks to the net offensively.
“Every time you get called up, the goal is to try and stick here. That’s the goal this time and it’s unfortunate that Zub got injured because you never want to see that. This is just an opportunity to take that next step.”
