Status report

Glendening will return after missing a 4-1 win at the New York Islanders on Tuesday for the birth of his second child. … Raddysh, a defenseman, will be a healthy scratch for the first time since March 13. … Tkachuk will miss his second straight game; Senators coach Travis Green, who had initially been “hopeful” Tkachuk would only miss one game, did not have an update on the forward’s status after Ottawa's morning skate. … Jensen did not take part in the morning skate but will play. … Cousins, who had knee surgery Feb. 1, skated in a no-contact jersey Thursday; there is no timeline for the forward's return.
