As expected, Savard (oblique) will return to the lineup Saturday night against the visiting Senators.

Analysis:

Columbus may be last in the Metropolitan Division standings, but the team is still fighting hard with a 5-3-2 record over the past 10 games. Savard's presence in the lineup has significant implications as he's averaged just over 24 minutes per game this season and has a playmaker's touch as well. The fourth-year blueliner has recorded 15 helpers and 16 points in 39 games this season.
