Spence (undisclosed) practiced Friday after missing Wednesday's pair of preseason games versus the Maple Leafs.
Spence should have a chance to play Saturday in one of the Senators' split-squad games versus the Canadiens. The 25-year-old defenseman is expected to be a regular in the lineup in 2026-27 and should also get some power-play time. Ottawa's first regular-season game is Oct. 3 versus the Maple Leafs.
