Senators' Zack Smith: Questionable with illness Tuesday

Smith is under the weather, putting into question his availability for Tuesday's game against the Flyers, Bruce Garrioch of the Ottawa Sun reports.

Analysis:

This is a breaking development, so fantasy owners depending on Smith will want to check back closer to warmups to see if the versatile scoring pivot takes to the ice. If not, the Senators could elect to start seven defensemen, including Jyrki Jokipakka, who has yet to debut with the club.
