Norris (upper body) was put on injured reserve Saturday, per the NHL media site.
Scouting Report
The Michigan native has the kind of first-step quickness that can create separation from opposing checkers. Is a good playmaker who shoots well enough to keep opponents from dropping off of him. He put up good scoring numbers in college hockey and the AHL, and should become even more effective as his 6’2” frame fills out and his overall game matures.
Long Range Potential: Solid scoring center (when healthy).
