Hoffman (undisclosed) appears ready to slot back into the lineup against Montreal on Tuesday, Bruce Garrioch of the Ottawa Sun reports.

EDGE Analysis

Hoffman has missed the last two outings due to injury but looks ready to go. Prior to getting hurt, the 26-year-old was stuck in a five-game pointless streak that included a minus-5 rating. The winger's offensive struggles certainly aren't due to a lack of opportunities as he is averaging over 17 minutes of ice time per night during this drought, including 2:37 with the man advantage.
