Head coach admits “it looks like a disaster” after 4 injuries over the week-end.

With 68 points on the season the Ottawa Senators were sitting in a playoff position just days before the trade deadline, but general manager Pierre Dorion may now be scrambling to re-evaluate the status of his team.

Over the course of a single week-end the Ottawa Senators have suffered a number of devastating injuries, first with the announcement that forward Bobby Ryan could be out up to six weeks with an injured finger, followed by three more players going down on Sunday night. Head coach Guy Boucher didn't mince words admitting the situation looked terrible.

“Tough day with the loss of Bobby and then we lost another bunch of guys," said Boucher as per Senators insider Bruce Garrioch. "At some point I felt, there was nobody on the bench. I can give you an update – it doesn’t look good. We have to wait until tomorrow to be clear and precise about all these guys."

“Right now, we could be losing quite a few guys … It looks like a disaster."

The Senators now await updates on Mark StoneTommy Wingels and Mike Hoffman, and if Boucher's comments are any indication it doesn't sound promising for the Senators
