from Bruce Garrioch of the Ottawa Sun,

The hits just keep on coming for the Senators.

After losing Chris Neil to a knee injury Thursday, the Senators confirmed Sunday they'll be without centre Zack Smith for "months" after he dislocated his wrist in Saturday's 3-2 victory over the Bruins.

Oh, and the news isn't much better on defence, either. Marc Methot, who has played two games because a hip/back injury that has nagged him since last April, was placed back on injured-reserve Sunday and is out indefinitely.
