The Ottawa Senators could have a number of players back in their lineup for their game on Saturday against the San Jose Sharks. Captain Brady Tkachuk knows the final stretch of the season is a do-or-die time for the team.

Following Team USA’s 3-2 overtime loss to Canada in the 4 Nations Face-Off final, Tkachuk vowed to use the disappointment as motivation for the 2026 Olympics when it comes to beating Team Canada if they meet next year. “This sucks,” Tkachuk said. “I thought this team deserved more.

NHL analyst Brandon Piller defended Brady Tkachuk after fans questioned his absence from the Senators' game against the Montreal Canadiens on Saturday.

If Ottawa Senators' Brady Tkachuk suits up against the Montreal Canadiens, he’d better keep his head up, says Arber Xhekaj.
