Line Change
Davidsson (lower-body) will not play on Monday.
Davidsson was originally a sixth-round pick of the Blue Jackets but was traded to Ottawa as a part of the Matt Duchene trade last February. The 21-year-old winger is in his first year in North America and has registered one goal and two assists in eight games with Belleville. Davidsson will make his NHL debut on Thursday.
Davidsson is a more under the radar prospect, who quickly rose up the ranks in Columbus after a strong season in Sweden a year ago. Davidsson has continued that play with similar numbers this season, scoring 10 goals with 10 assists (20 points) in 35 games as a 21-year-old with Djurgårdens IF.
