Ottawa Senators Forward David Perron to Miss 5-7 Weeks with Sports Hernia

Ottawa Senators fans received disappointing news today as forward David Perron will be sidelined for five to seven weeks due to a sports hernia requiring surgery. The announcement was made by head coach Travis Green, who revealed the injury had been bothering the veteran Quebec native for some time.

“It’s an injury that’s been nagging at him for a while,” Green stated. This is a significant blow to the Senators’ offensive lineup, as Perron has been a consistent contributor this season.

Perron’s Performance This Season

In 49 games played this season, the 37-year-old Perron has recorded 10 goals and 15 assists, demonstrating his continued value to the team. His experience and playmaking ability will be sorely missed during his absence.

Impact on the Senators

The Senators will need to adjust their forward lines in Perron’s absence. This injury comes at a crucial time in the season as the team battles for a playoff spot. The team will rely on other players to step up and fill the void left by Perron.

Upcoming Game: Senators vs. Predators

The Senators are scheduled to face the Nashville Predators tonight. The game is set to begin at 8:00 PM ET and will be broadcast on RDS2 and streamed on RDS.ca. Fans can expect a competitive matchup as the Senators look to secure a win despite being without a key player.
