Senators Recall Zack MacEwen, Move Josh Norris To LTIR

March 1, 2024 at 9:21 am CDT | by Josh Erickson Leave a Comment

10:03 a.m.: Norris has been placed on LTIR, per CapFriendly. The Senators are now cap-compliant.

9:21 a.m.: The Senators recalled right-winger Zack MacEwen from AHL Belleville on Friday, per a team statement. The 27-year-old enforcer had been on a minor-league assignment since clearing waivers over two weeks ago.

Ottawa doesn’t have cap space for any recalls, so a corresponding transaction must be made to accommodate MacEwen. That will likely be moving center Josh Norris, who’s expected to miss “extended time” with an upper-body injury, to long-term injured reserve.

Moving Norris to LTIR rules him out through most of March. If his pending placement is retroactive to the date of the injury, Feb. 27, the earliest he could return would be March 23 against the Devils, satisfying a minimum 24-day absence.

That would cause him to miss Ottawa’s next 11 games. Norris also missed four games in January with an upper-body injury, plus the first three games of the season while he was completing his recovery from shoulder surgery that limited him to eight games last season.

MacEwen returns from Belleville to serve in a fourth-line role for tonight’s game against the Coyotes. The lack of any recalls on defense indicates that Jake Sanderson and Artem Zub, who were questionable with undisclosed and lower-body injuries, respectively, will play.

The Prince Edward Island native has struggled to lock down an everyday role after signing a three-year, $2.325MM deal to join the Sens in free agency. He has two goals, one assist and 46 PIMs in 22 games but has been productive in limited AHL action with five goals and two assists in 10 games for Belleville.

That’s nothing new for MacEwen, who has been a solid point producer in the AHL despite his limited scoring and enforcer role at the major league level. He has 43 goals, 63 assists, and 106 points in 167 minor-league games since turning pro in 2017.

MacEwen’s recall puts the Senators at 21 players on the active roster. With Norris on LTIR, they would have cap space to fill their two vacant slots if they so choose.
