Stafford (illness) will sit out Sunday's game agains the Senators.

EDGE Analysis

Stafford's disappearance from the lineup for a second straight contest shouldn't be of much concern in most fantasy leagues given his 12 points (four goals, eight assists) through 39 contests this season. The veteran has a much-improved rating this season, but doesn't produce at a high enough rate nor see enough ice time (13:16 average) to warrant ownership in all but the deepest of leagues. Given the illness designation, it seems unlikely he will miss much more time.
