Matt Duchene may have played his last game with the Ottawa Senators.
The pending unrestricted free agent is not expected to be in the lineup Thursday against the New Jersey Devils to avoid injury risk, according to TSN's Darren Dreger.
Dreger reported on Sunday the Senators plan to trade Duchene before Monday's 3 p.m. deadline.
Duchene tallied two assists on Monday against the Chicago Blackhawks, giving him 58 points in 50 games this season.
The Winnipeg Jets and Columbus Blue Jackets have already reportedly shown interest in Duchene.
