Gambrell (concussion) was placed on waivers Sunday, according to Chris Johnston of TSN.
Gambrell is ready to return after being diagnosed with a concussion Sept. 27. If he goes unclaimed, he will start the 2023-24 campaign with AHL Toronto. Gambrell supplied 10 points, 45 blocked shots and 60 hits in 60 games with Ottawa last season.

Maple Leafs' Dylan Gambrell: Diagnosed with concussion
Rotowire
Gambrell "won't be available for a while" due to a concussion, Terry Koshan of The Toronto Sun reports.
It sounds like Gambrell could be in danger of missing Toronto's regular-season opener Oct. 11 versus Montreal. The 27-year-old forward picked up just 10 points through 60 games with Ottawa last season, so there's little reason for fantasy managers to monitor his status.

Senators' Dylan Gambrell: Garners assist in victory
Rotowire
Gambrell recorded an assist in Saturday's 7-4 win over the Lightning.
Every Senators forward notched at least one point in this contest, save for Mathieu Joseph, who still applied the pressure with four shots on goal. Gambrell had also scored in the prior contest against the Blue Jackets, and the third-line pivot is trending in a positive direction as the Senators wrap up the final two games of the season.

Senators' Dylan Gambrell: Pots second goal
Rotowire
Gambrell scored his second goal of the season in Tuesday's 2-1 loss to the Bruins.
The 26-year-old opened the scoring midway through the first period, beating Linus Ullmark on a lightning-quick wraparound, but it was all the offense Ottawa could muster. Gambrell's only other tally this season came back on Nov. 1, and the bottom-six forward has just seven points in 51 games.

Senators' Dylan Gambrell: Minimal usage continues
Rotowire
Gambrell logged just 10:24 of ice time in Sunday's 4-2 loss to Minnesota in which he recorded one shot, one hit and two blocks.
Gambrell has served as a healthy scratch in 18 of the team's 31 contests this year, so it shouldn't be a huge surprise to see he managed just one point. Without consistent opportunities to play a more prominent role, Gambrell shouldn't be expected to provide much in the way of fantasy value this year.

Senators' Dylan Gambrell: Re-ups with club
Rotowire
Gambrell secured a one-year, $950,000 contract from the Senators on Wednesday.
Gambrell logged a career-high 63 games for the Senators this season in which he generated three goals, four assists and 58 shots while averaging 12:08 of ice time. Heading into next year, the 25-year-old center probably shouldn't be expected to take on a bigger role or see a significant uptick in minutes.

Rotowire
Gambrell (illness) is expected to draw back into the lineup for Saturday's game versus the Rangers, TSN 1200 Ottawa reports.

Senators' Dylan Gambrell: Doubtful versus Preds
Rotowire
Gambrell is under the weather and is considered doubtful to play against Nashville on Thursday, TSN 1200 Ottawa reports.
Gambrell has just one point in his last 20 contests, so few fantasy players figure to be impacted by his absence. With Drake Batherson (illness) also sidelined and Tim Stutzle (knee) a game-time call, the Senators will likely have to bring in a forward or two from the minors for Thursday's tilt.

Senators' Dylan Gambrell: Posts rare goal
Rotowire
Gambrell found twine in Saturday's 4-3 shootout loss to the Panthers.
Gambrell, who scored on his only shot attempt, capped off a three-goal run for the Senators, but the Panthers rallied for the win. The fourth-line center has just five points through 47 games and simply doesn't play enough to catch the attention of the fantasy crowd.

Senators' Dylan Gambrell: Returning Saturday
Rotowire
Gambrell (undisclosed) will play Saturday versus the Canadiens.
Due to Thomas Chabot and Victor Mete both being sidelined by illness, Gambrell will be in an unconventional 13-forward, five-defensemen lineup. Gambrell is a solid defensive forward and could see some shifts as a defenseman, though it's unclear how the Senators will manage their personnel in this one. He missed just one game with the injury.

Senators' Dylan Gambrell: Ruled out against Wild
Rotowire
Gambrell is dealing with an undisclosed injury that will keep him out of action versus Minnesota on Tuesday, Ian Mendes of TSN 1200 Ottawa reports.
Gambrell has registered just one point in his last 16 outings, so few fantasy players will likely be impacted by his absence. With no additional forwards available on the current 23-man roster, the Senators will need to elevate a player from AHL Belleville.

Senators' Dylan Gambrell: Set to play Monday
Rotowire
Gambrell (upper body) is expected back in the lineup against New Jersey on Monday, Bruce Garrioch of the Ottawa Sun reports.
Gambrell will be back in action following a four-game stint on injured reserve due to his upper-body problem. Prior to getting hurt, the center was mired in a 10-game goalless streak during which he managed just one point, so few fantasy players figure to be impacted by his return.

Senators' Dylan Gambrell: Set to miss 2-3 games
Rotowire
Gambrell (upper body) is expected to be sidelined for at least 2-3 games, though coach DJ Smith didn't specifically rule him out until after the All-Star break, TSN 1200 Ottawa reports.
At a minimum, Gambrell won't be available versus Carolina or Anaheim on Thursday and Saturday, respectively, due to his upper-body problem. Considering the 25-year-old center is mired in an eight-game pointless streak and has just three points on the year, few fantasy players will be impacted by his absence.

Senators' Dylan Gambrell: Could see ice time increase
Rotowire
Gambrell could be in line for more ice time Thursday against Calgary after No. 2 center Tim Stutzle entered COVID-19 protocols Wednesday.
Gambrell has received between 10 and 12 minutes in each of Ottawa's past three games, but with Stutzle highly unlikely to skate now, his minutes might increase until the 19-year-old returns. He's never scored against Calgary, though, so he'd have to be a very cheap play to be any value in daily leagues.

Gambrell entered the NHL's COVID-19 protocols Monday.
Gambrell becomes just the latest member of the Senators to be placed in the league's protocols, bringing the team's total up to four, not including associate coach Jack Capuano.
