Senators' Ridly Greig: May still return to action
Rotowire
Greig (chest), who was originally ruled out for the season, could still play this year, though hasn't been officially cleared as of Wednesday, Ian Mendes of The Athletic reports.
Greig was a full practice participant Wednesday, per Bruce Garrioch of the Ottawa Sun, yet is still working his way back to 100 percent. The 20-year-old's potential return will likely be too little too late for the Senators to earn a playoff spot but should clear the way for him to make the Opening Night roster ahead of the 2023-24 campaign.

Rotowire
Greig was reassigned to AHL Belleville on Saturday.
The 20-year-old first round pick in 2020 --28th overall -- made his NHL debut a month ago and had a goal and three assists in 11 games, but needs more playing time in the minors, as he was averaging only 13:29 of playing time with the Senators. Greig has 12 goals and 23 points in 28 games with Belleville this season, and he'll see plenty of playing time, as well as lots of power play time in the AHL.

Senators' Ridly Greig: Eight shots in NHL debut
Rotowire
Greig had a power-play assist and eight shots on goal in Wednesday's 2-1 win over the Islanders.
Greig had chances galore in his NHL debut, and he got on the scoresheet with an assist on Claude Giroux's second-period goal, which turned out to be the game-winner. The 2020 first-round pick could be a player to watch in dynasty leagues, and Greig could even carve out some redraft value if he continues to be deployed on the second line with power-play time by the Senators.

Senators' Ridly Greig: Should be ready for camp
Rotowire
Greig (shoulder) is expected to be ready for preseason contests during training camp, Bruce Garrioch of the Ottawa Sun reports Monday.
Greig won't be an option for the Senators' rookie tournament but could be healthy enough for the opening of preseason versus the Maple Leafs on Sept. 24. Even with the 20-year-old center available for camp, he will likely be hard-pressed to secure a spot on the 23-man roster for Opening Night and figures to spend some time developing in the minors with AHL Belleville.
