Ottawa Senators head coach Guy Boucher announced that forward Mark Stone has been diagnosed with a concussion.
The team didn’t provide additional details regarding the severity of the injury, merely stating that “his progress will be evaluated daily.” He left a training camp session early on Friday.
At the moment, it’s unclear how or when Stone was injured.
As much as training camps are about fresh starts and optimism (justified or not), they are also times where teams get a chance to look at players for the first time in a while. Sometimes that means encountering or discovering unfortunate news.
