Senators' Artem Zub: Returns to action

Zub (foot) returned to action Thursday in a 4-2 loss to Dallas. He played 13:30 with one blocked shot and one shot on goal.

Zub hadn't played since Nov. 23. He had his best season in 2023-24 with 25 points (five goals), but he has just two assists in 12 games so far this year. Zub shouldn't be a priority waiver-wire target at this point, but fantasy managers who need some hits and blocks should keep his name in mind for their last roster spot as the season progresses.
