Artem Zub - Page 2 - NHL News & Rumors

Game-time decision Zub (lower body) will be a game-time decision Tuesday against Columbus, per TSN 1200 Ottawa.

Impact Zub didn't take part in the morning skate after leaving Monday's practice for maintenance. He was injured in Saturday's win over Toronto. Zub has 18 points, 68 blocked shots and 80 hits across 40 outings this season. If he is ruled out, Ottawa would have to play Tuesday's contest with only five defensemen because of salary cap constraints.

Picks up two assists Thursday Zub recorded two assists in Thursday's 6-2 win over the Canadiens.

Impact The 28-year-old blueliner collected a helper on first-period goals by Brady Tkachuk and Tim Stutzle. Zub has five assists in the last three games, but he has only one other multi-point performance on the season, and he's unlikely to work his way into power-play time on a roster that's already juggling Jake Sanderson, Thomas Chabot and Jakob Chychrun. Zub's sudden surge of production is nice, but it probably isn't sustainable.

Three helpers against San Jose Zub picked up three assists while adding a team-high seven shots on net, two hits, one blocked shot and a plus-3 rating in Saturday's 5-4 win over the Sharks.

Impact It's the first multi-point performance in over a month for Zub, who had just one goal and four points in the 16 games between those outbursts. The 28-year-old blueliner is still headed for a career-best campaign, producing three goals and 14 points in 30 games with 51 blocked shots, 48 hits, 42 shots on goal and a plus-4 rating.

Set to play against Sabres Zub (illness) is slated to return to the lineup versus Buffalo on Thursday.

Impact Zub will be back after just one game on the shelf due to his illness. With just one goal in his last 23 games, to go with six helpers, fantasy players probably shouldn't be expecting an offensive burst out of the blueliner. With Zub returning and Josh Norris (upper body) unavailable, the Senators will utilize seven defensemen Thursday.

Not expected to play Zub (illness) is not in the lineup for Tuesday's game versus the Flames.

Impact Zub missed Monday's practice with a flu bug, and now he'll have to sit out a game as well. Jacob Bernard-Docker is expected to play Tuesday, while Travis Hamonic is set for a bump up to the top four in Zub's absence.

Dealing with illness Zub didn't practice Monday because of an illness, per TSN 1200 Ottawa.

Impact A flu bug has been making its way through the Senators. It's unclear at this time if Zub will be available to play Tuesday versus Calgary. If he isn't able to suit up, Jacob Bernard-Docker could be paired with Thomas Chabot in Tuesday's contest.

JANUARY 8 • ROTOWIRE

Gathers assist Zub posted an assist in Thursday's 6-4 loss to the Avalanche.

Impact Zub helped out on Drake Batherson's second-period marker. This was Zub's second straight game with an assist, and he's earned six helpers over 11 contests in December. That accounts for over half of his offense on the year -- 10 points in 21 outings -- and he's added 33 hits, 39 blocked shots and a minus-1 rating while playing a defensive role in the Senators' top four.

DECEMBER 22, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Provides helper in loss Zub logged an assist in Tuesday's 4-3 loss to the Coyotes.

Impact Zub set up Angus Crookshank's first-period tally. With five assists over 10 games in December, Zub has put together a solid month, though offense is rarely the focal point of his game. He's at nine points, 33 hits, 39 blocked shots, 20 shots on net and a minus-1 rating through 20 appearances this season, serving as more of a shutdown defenseman in a top-four role.

Red Wings forward David Perron suspended 6 games for cross-check on Ottawa's Artem Zub

Red Wings forward David Perron has been suspended for six games by the NHL for cross-checking Ottawa defenseman Artem Zub in the aftermath of a hit on Dylan Larkin that knocked out...

Two helpers in Tuesday's win Zub picked up two assists in Tuesday's 6-2 win over the Rangers.

Impact Both helpers came on Brady Tkachuk goals -- Zub's point shot got tipped home in the first period, while his effort in the second was a miscue that sailed wide but wound up caroming off the end boards straight to Tkachuk at the side of the net. It's Zub's first multi-point performance of the season, but the 28-year-old blueliner has been surprisingly productive around a concussion that cost him a few weeks of action, racking up two goals and seven points in 13 games despite a lack of power-play time.

Questionable Thursday Zub (upper body) is questionable ahead of Thursday's clash with Los Angeles, Wayne Scanlan of the Ottawa Citizen reports.

Impact Zub looks close to returning from a four-game absence due to his upper-body injury, though he hasn't been officially confirmed as playing Thursday. Prior to getting hurt, the blueliner was rolling offensively with three points in four games while averaging 17:57 of ice time. Even with Zub back in the lineup, Ottawa is still thin on defense with Erik Brannstrom (concussion) and Thomas Chabot (hand) both sidelined.

Not on trip Zub (upper body) didn't accompany his teammates for the start of the Senators' two-game road trip, which begins Thursday against the Islanders, Wayne Scanlan of the Ottawa Citizen...

Impact It looks like Zub will miss at least two more games with the upper-body injury he suffered Oct. 18 versus Washington. Jacob Bernard-Docker will likely continue to occupy a bottom-pairing role until Zub, who's picked up a goal and two assists through four games this season, is ready to return.

OCTOBER 26, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Ruled out for Tuesday Zub (upper body) won't play Tuesday against Buffalo, per TSN 1200 Ottawa.

Impact Zub, who will miss a second straight contest, could be a possibility to return Thursday versus the Islanders because he is feeling better. The 28-year-old blueliner has generated one goal, two assists, nine blocked shots and eight hits through four appearances this season. Jacob Bernard-Docker has been filling in during Zub's absence.

OCTOBER 23, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Not playing Saturday Zub (upper body) will not be available Saturday versus Detroit, per Ian Mendes of The Athletic.

Impact The Senators will need to recall a defenseman as they are down to five blueliners without Zub in the lineup. He has a goal and two assists in four games, after picking up three goals and 10 points in 53 contests last season. The Senators consider Zub day-to-day.

Picks up helper Zub registered an assist in Sunday's 5-2 win over the Lightning.

Impact Zub has recorded just one shot through the first three games of the season but still managed to record a pair of helpers. Considering the Russian blueliner managed just 10 points in 53 contests last season, this recent run of offensive form is unlikely to last too long.

OCTOBER 16, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Two helpers Monday Zub recorded a pair of assists in Monday's 6-2 win over the Red Wings.

Impact Zub set up Brady Tkachuk's tally in the second period before adding a second helper on Thomas Chabot's goal in the final frame. Zub had logged just one point in his previous eight games since returning from an eight-game IR stint. The 27-year-old blueliner has three goals and six assists through 30 games this season. Zub is typically relied on to play a stay-at-home role alongside the more offensive-minded Chabot on Ottawa's top defensive pairing.
