The Senators are "real hopeful" that DeMelo (finger) will play on Tuesday.

DeMelo has missed the last 10 games with a broken finger but was back on the ice for Monday's practice and is expected to play on Tuesday. The Senators did not hold a morning skate so we'll have to wait for an update during head coach D.J. Smith's pre-game availability.

DeMelo is expected to miss 3-4 weeks with a broken finger.

DeMelo broke his finger late in Wednesday's game in Montreal and will be out until early-January. This is a huge blow for the Senators, who lose arguably their most consistent/reliable defenseman of 2019-20. Erik Brannstom could be summoned from the AHL to replace DeMelo.

The Sharks have recalled Dylan DeMelo from Worcester (AHL).

DeMelo, 21, was a sixth-round pick (179th overall) of the Sharks in 2011. He has three goals and 10 assists (13 points) in 38 games with Worcester this season. He has been recalled because Justin Braun is out and Mirco Mueller has been sent down on a conditioning stint.
