Designated for IR Amadio (upper body) was placed on injured reserve Thursday, per the NHL media site.
Impact Amadio doesn't have an official recovery timeline from the team other than it would be a while, so his placement on IR shouldn't come as a surprise. The move will allow the Senators to activate Artem Zub, who is returning against Dallas on Thursday following a long-term foot injury.

Impact Amadio appeared to suffer a head injury Saturday against Vancouver when he went hard into the boards, and he'll be sidelined for the second half of the back-to-back set.

The 28-year-old is up to 10 points, 39 shots on net, 35 hits, 18 blocked shots and a minus-1 rating through 33 appearances. Without more of a scoring touch, Amadio has little to offer -- fantasy managers can typically find more reliable forward depth elsewhere.

Impact Amadio snapped an eight-game point drought with the helper on a Nick Cousins' third-period tally.

Lights lamp in win Amadio scored a goal on two shots, added two hits and blocked two shots in Tuesday's 3-0 win over the Maple Leafs.
Impact This was Amadio's second straight game with a goal. He's earned all four of his points this season over the last seven contests. The 28-year-old remains in a third-line role, and he's seeing time on the second power-play unit, though he has yet to earn a point with the man advantage. He's added 21 shots on net, 17 hits and 10 PIM through 15 appearances. If Amadio can sustain a better scoring pace, he could help fantasy managers in deeper formats.

Puts up helper in win Amadio logged an assist and two PIM in Saturday's 3-0 win over the Kraken.
Impact Amadio has two helpers this season, and he's earned both of them over the last three games.

He's added 16 shots on net, 11 hits, six blocked shots, six PIM and a minus-1 rating through 11 appearances. Amadio can unlock a bit more offense than this -- he had 27 points in each of the last two regular seasons with Vegas.

First point with new team Amadio recorded an assist, two hits and a plus-3 rating in Tuesday's 8-1 win over the Blues.
Impact The helper was Amadio's first point in nine outings this season, as his Senators tenure has gotten off to a slow start. The 28-year-old has added 13 shots on net, nine hits, five blocked shots and a minus-3 rating. He's primarily playing in a middle-six role and occasionally features on the second power-play unit, but he'll likely need to show more on offense to get better assignments, so fantasy managers can wait and see how Amadio progresses this season.
