Norris (upper body) will play versus Utah on Sunday, according to Bruce Garrioch of Postmedia.
EDGE Analysis
The Senators initially ruled out Norris for Sunday's matchup, but injuries to Nick Cousins (lower body), Cole Reinhardt (upper body) and Noah Gregor (lower body) may have altered those plans. Following a two-game absence, the 25-year-old Norris will center the second line and should see power-play time versus Utah. He has 17 goals, 27 points, 88 shots on net, 40 blocked shots and 120 hits across 47 appearances this season.

EDGE Analysis

Norris scored two goals, one on the power play, in Saturday's 6-5 shootout win over the Bruins.
EDGE Analysis
His second goal was clutch. The Senators were down 5-3 late in the third period, but after Nick Jensen slipped a puck through a screen with just under four minutes left in regulation, Norris wired a one-timer past Jeremy Swayman from the slot with just 12 seconds left before the final horn. Norris has three goals and five points in the last five games, exactly matching his production from the 15 games prior to that. On the season, the streaky center has 17 goals and 27 points in 45 appearances.

Norris scored a goal on four shots, doled out seven hits and added two PIM in Sunday's 3-2 win over the Stars.
EDGE Analysis
Norris ended a five-game goal drought with the second-period tally, which tied the contest at 1-1. He has been limited to two points over six outings in January. The center's slowdown on offense is a bit concerning even though he's maintained a prominent role in the Senators' lineup. He's contributed 15 goals, nine assists, 83 shots, 112 hits, 28 PIM and a minus-10 rating over 42 appearances this season.
