Norris scored a power-play goal on three shots, blocked two shots and went minus-2 in Thursday's 6-4 loss to the Avalanche.
EDGE Analysis
Norris has tallied in four straight games and six of his last eight. This was also his third outing in a row with a power-play marker. The 24-year-old center is up to 11 goals, 18 points (nine on the power play), 68 shots, 29 hits and a minus-4 rating through 25 outings. Fantasy managers likely hadn't given him much thought prior to December, but he should be working his way onto more rosters with his recent performance.

Norris scored a power-play goal on two shots, added an assist and logged two hits in Sunday's 6-3 loss to the Golden Knights.
EDGE Analysis
Norris tied the game at 1-1 in the first period with his goal, but his helper came on a tally too late to make a difference in the third. The 24-year-old has found his scoring touch with four goals and two assists over his last seven outings. On the year, the center has 16 points, 64 shots on net, 28 hits and a minus-1 rating through 23 appearances, mainly in a second-line role. Seven of his points have come with the man advantage.

Norris scored a goal on two shots and added two hits in Friday's 5-4 loss to the Stars.
EDGE Analysis
Norris has potted three goals over his last five games. The 24-year-old center is up to eight tallies on the season, but it appears he's getting more comfortable again after missing most of last season due to shoulder surgery. Norris has mainly been a second-line presence for the Senators in 2023-24, picking up 14 points, 62 shots on net, 26 hits and a minus-2 rating over 22 appearances.

Norris scored his seventh goal of the season in Tuesday's 4-1 loss to the Hurricanes.
EDGE Analysis
An aggressive forecheck by the Senators created some scoring chances midway through the first period and Norris was able to tip home an Erik Brannstrom point shot, but it was all the offense the team could muster. Norris has found the back of the net in two of the last three games, but since the beginning of November he's managed just four goals and eight points in 15 contests.

Norris scored a goal and added an assist in Thursday's 5-4 overtime win over the Red Wings.
EDGE Analysis
After helping to set up a Jake Sanderson tally midway through the first period, Norris gave the Senators a 4-0 lead just 78 seconds into the second period by finishing a give-and-go with Vladimir Tarasenko. It was Norris' second multi-point performance in 11 games after a slightly delayed start to the season while he completed his recovery from shoulder surgery, but the 24-year-old's looked 100 percent healthy since getting on the ice with five goals and nine points.

Norris scored a goal Thursday in a 3-2 loss to the Kings.
EDGE Analysis
Norris tipped a Jacob Bernard-Docker point shot at 4:39 of the third period. It pushed the score to 3-2. It was his fourth goal in six games (six points) after starting the season on injured reserve. Norris delivered 35 goals and 20 assists in 66 games two seasons ago, but missed all but eight contests last year. That injury is behind him, and he's on an upward trajectory once again.

Norris (shoulder) scored two goals on three shots in Wednesday's 6-1 win over the Capitals.
EDGE Analysis
Norris netted a power-play marker, which stood as the game-winner, in the first period, and he also scored in the middle frame. The 24-year-old center missed the first three contests while finishing up his recovery from shoulder surgery last season. In 2021-22, he picked up 35 goals and 20 helpers in 66 outings, though that was on a 20.3 shooting percentage that is likely too high to be replicated this year.

Norris (shoulder) will make his season debut Wednesday versus Washington, per Ian Mendes of The Athletic.
EDGE Analysis
Norris began the season on the injured reserve list due to his shoulder injury. He centered the third line alongside Dominik Kubalik and Drake Batherson during Wednesday's morning skate, according to Bruce Garrioch of the Ottawa Sun. Norris was limited to eight games due to injury last season, but he had 35 goals and 55 points in 66 outings in 2021-22. His availability might result in Zack MacEwen serving as a healthy scratch.

Norris (shoulder) will begin the year on injured reserve, per PuckPedia.
EDGE Analysis
Norris suffered a few setbacks during the preseason and will now sit for at least three games to start the year. He was held to just eight games last year and still isn't back to 100 percent. He buried 35 goals and 55 points during the 2021-22 campaign and will slide back into Ottawa's top-six once he's ready to go.
