White suffered a shoulder injury in the preseason and missed nearly five months but is set to make his season debut on Saturday. The Senators said that he will move around the lineup, playing both centre and wing. White had 10 goals and eight assists (18 points) in 45 games a season ago.
White has yet to play this season due to a shoulder injury that he suffered in the preseason. He is targeting a debut on Saturday and should slide directly into the Senators' top-6.
White was injured in Monday's preseason game and will require surgery to repair a dislocated shoulder and will be out until at least early-February. With White out, the Senators signed Tyler Ennis to a one-year deal worth $900K to fill his spot on the roster for the start of the 2021-22 season.
White will miss the season finale vs. the Maple Leafs with an undisclosed injury. It was an up and down campaign for White, who finishes with 18 points (10G / 8A) in 45 games. Artem Anisimov will draw in to replace White.
White has missed the last five games with an upper-body injury but will play Monday vs. the Jets. White, who has eight goals and six assists (14 points) in 32 games this season, will centre the third line with Evgenii Dadonov and Nick Paul on his wings.
White was banged up on Thursday and did not return. He will likely miss Saturday's game vs. the Canadiens after being listed as day-to-day on Friday. Luckily, it looks as if they will get Artem Anisimov back to replace him at centre.
White suffered an ugly-looking lower-body injury on Wednesday and will not play tonight in Edmonton. The Senators have yet to provide a full update on White but it sure looked like he'll miss an extended period of time.
White, who played most of last season as the Senators' No.1 centre, has plummeted down the depth chart during training camp. According to head coach DJ Smith, there are "four centres ahead of him that had good camps." Those four centres are Josh Norris, newcomer Derek Stepan, Chris Tierney and Artem Anisimov.
While has missed the last three games with an undisclosed injury but will play tonight in Pittsburgh. White, who has 17 points (6G / 11A) in 56 games this season, is expected to be on the third line with Nick Paul and Jayce Hawryluk and should see some time on PP1 as well.
White will miss his third straight game on Saturday but is hopeful that he'll play Tuesday in Pittsburgh. Josh Norris should remain in the Senators lineup while White is out.
White has been out since October 21st but will return from his conditioning stint with Belleville and play vs. the Hurricanes. White, who missed seven games, returns with just one goal and one assist in eight games this season.
White will miss his seventh straight game on Thursday but he was sent to Belleville to practice with the team this week. White is 2.5 weeks into a 3-to-5 week timetable, so it looks like he could return on the front-end of that timetable.
This is a huge blow to an already thin Senators lineup. White ranked fifth among Senators' forwards in ice-time (17:51) but has had a slow start, scoring one goal with one assist in eight games. The Senators have a busy schedule coming up so missing 3-to-5 weeks will mean missing 10-to-17 games for White. Logan Brown was recalled from Belleville (AHL) to take his spot on the roster.
During his first full NHL season, White had 14 goals and 27 assists (41 points) in 71 games. White averaged 16:12 TOI/gm while carrying a +3.4 CF% rel on the league’s worst team. White is set to start 2020 as the Senators No.1 centre and should build off of 2019 as he should play 17-18 minutes per night.
White was on the ice for Wednesday’s practice but will not be available for Thursday’s game. White will miss his second straight game, which means Chris Tierney will move up into the top-6.
