Senators' Clarke MacArthur: Fails medical

MacArthur (neck) appeared to be over his injury woes heading in to 2017-18, but he failed his medical Thursday.

MacArthur has a well-documented history of concussions, which have limited him to just four regular season games in each of the last two campaigns. When MacArthur suffered the neck injury in the 2017 postseason, the team said it was not concussion-related, but there's a possibility that there were further effects as time progressed. Ottawa hasn't given any information as to MacArthur's timeline for recovery, but the team should release additional updates as they become available.
