And now the Sens have just heard from their captain: he’ll be out for a month.People in Ottawa are holding their breath. content-ads]

Tkachuk will be out 4+ weeks with a hand injury.

Unclear if he will need surgery.#Sens– Alex Adams (@alexadamsBTP_) October 14, 2025

Brady, who is as neutralized at the start of the season as his brother is in Florida, must not exactly be a satisfied customer at the time of writing. After all, he wants to play… and he knows that his club needs him. At the Canadiens, we have to look at this and tell ourselves to take advantage. After all, if Martin St-Louis’ men want to make the playoffs, the Sens will be in the way, but without Brady Tkachuk, it won’t be the same game.We’re not saying that the road is open in the Atlantic, but there are a few teams that aren’t as good as they were at the start of the 2025-2026 season, and the CH must take advantage. Will they?

– Martin St-Louis loves his club.[98.5 FM] – Far from a demotion?

Pascal Vincent mentioned that Kidney had his best camp ever. Since he wasn’t scheduled to play on Friday, we’re taking advantage of the short Laval-Trois-Rivières distance to allow him to keep up his rhythm. Far from a demotion, it will depend on how Kidney reacts to all this! https://t.co/18HfAnf2JR –
