Senators Call Up One of Their Top Prospects

The Ottawa Senators received some brutal information on Monday as Josh Norris, who just returned from injury, will be out for the remainder of the season due to a shoulder injury. With injuries come opportunity and this time around it will be Ridly Greig's chance to shine.

The Senators announced along with the Norris news, the team has recalled Greig from the AHL's Belleville Senators.

The 20-year-old Greig is set to make his NHL debut will the latest call up. He was a first-round pick at the 2020 NHL Entry Draft and has been putting up decent numbers as a professional. Greig has recorded 12 goals and 11 assists in 28 games for the baby Sens this season.

Greig will likely see time on the team's third line as they look for an offensive spark inserting one of their top prospects into the lineup. Management still wants to win this season and don't expect to see any signs of throwing in the towel from the Sens this season.
