Tkachuk left the morning skate early and could be one of the Senators game-time decisions on Tuesday.
The Senators announced that they have two or three game-time decisions on Tuesday but did not disclose who those players were. Tkachuk appeared to be banged up in their last game and left the morning skate early, so Tkachuk may be one of the players in question this evening.
