The winger should step into a fourth-line role with Mark Kastelic and Boris Katchouk. |

Kelly scored a goal and added an assist in Thursday's 6-2 win over the Canadiens. - After helping set up a Rourke Chartier tally in the second period, Kelly capped the scoring for the Sens with an empty-netter in the third. The 24-year-old only has five goals on the season, but four of them have come in the last 11 games as he finds a way to contribute despite a bottom-six role. |

Kelly scored a goal on five shots and added three hits in Saturday's 3-1 loss to the Oilers. - Kelly has scored in consecutive contests, and three of his four goals this season have come in the last six games. The 24-year-old spoiled Stuart Skinner's shutout bid at 15:02 of the third period. Kelly hasn't found a lot of success in a bottom-six role with seven points, 33 shots on net, 64 hits, 27 blocked shots and a minus-1 rating through 35 outings this season. With a lack of better forward options on the roster, Kelly's spot in the lineup should be considered secure. |

Kelly scored a goal on one shot against the Kraken on Thursday. - Kelly has tallied just three times in 34 games this season, so fantasy players probably shouldn't be expecting this to be a regular occurrence. Still, with six points on the year, the Alberta native should be capable of topping his career-best 12 points set back in 2021-22. |

Kelly picked up a goal and an assist in Wednesday's 5-3 loss to the Hurricanes. - Kelly grabbed an assist on Mathieu Joseph's opening tally in the first period before scoring a short-handed goal in the third. The 24-year-old Kelly is typically relied on for his physical presence rather than offensive production -- he had just one goal and four points with 172 hits in 55 games last season. Kelly should continue to fill a bottom-six role in Ottawa this year. |

Kelly (kneecap) was on the ice for the Senators in Thursday's first training camp practice, Jon Abbott of TSN 1200 reports. - Kelly was sidelined by a broken kneecap March 12 and ended 2022-23 with four points and 172 hits in 55 contests. The 24-year-old forward is in contention for a bottom-six job, though he may have to compete with PTO forward Josh Bailey to earn a roster spot. |

He has contributed four points, 59 shots on goal, 172 hits and 37 PIM in 55 contests this campaign. Patrick Brown has been skating on Ottawa's fourth line during Kelly's absence. |

Kelly (undisclosed) will not be in the lineup against Colorado on Thursday, TSN 1200 Ottawa reports. - In addition to Kelly, the Sens will be without Mathieu Joseph (lower body) which forced the team to call up Ridly Greig from the minors. Considering the 23-year-old Kelly has gone 26 games without a point, few fantasy players figure to be impacted by his absence from the lineup. Even once healthy, Kelly is far from a lock for the lineup and could find himself as a healthy scratch periodically. |

Kelly (undisclosed) is considered doubtful for Tuesday's matchup with Edmonton, TSN 1200 Ottawa reports. - With Kelly dealing with an undisclosed injury, look for Derick Brassard or Patrick Brown to jump into the lineup against the Oilers. At this point it isn't clear how long Kelly will be sidelined, but he's picked up only four points through 55 games this season, so fantasy managers shouldn't need to track his availability. |

His three shots Monday matched a season high. |

Kelly registered an assist, his first point of the season, against the Sabres on Wednesday. - Kelly remains mired in a season-long goal drought but at least has finally written his name on the scoresheet. Still, the 23-year-old forward is averaging just 7:59 of ice time in a fourth-line role, so fantasy players should probably expect his opportunities and production to remain limited. |

Kelly (undisclosed) is expected to be in the lineup versus Winnipeg on Tuesday, TSN 1200 Ottawa reports. - Kelly should be in the mix for a spot on the 23-man roster coming out of training camp after playing in 41 games for the club last season in which he generated seven goals on 48 shots, five assists and 131 hits. While the Alberta native's primary fantasy value figures to come in formats that value hits and blocks, he does still have decent mid-range offensive upside as well. |

Kelly (undisclosed) didn't skate on Friday, according to Bruce Garrioch of the Ottawa Sun. - Kelly will also be kept out of both of Ottawa's preseason games Saturday. The good news is Senators coach D. J. Smith doesn't think Kelly will be out for long. |

The 22-year-old has points in each of his last two games despite playing in a bottom-six role. The physical forward is up to 10 points, 112 hits, 41 PIM, 40 shots on net and a minus-5 rating through 36 appearances this season. |

Kelly was called up from AHL Belleville on Tuesday. - Kelly has logged 27 games for the Senators this season in which he registered five goals on 30 shots, one assist and 88 hits while averaging 9:42 of ice time. The decision to recall Kelly could be an indication that Tyler Ennis (upper body) won't be ready to face the Canadiens on Tuesday, though that doesn't guarantee Kelly would play either. |

Kelly was reassigned to AHL Belleville on Thursday. - Kelly has drawn into 16 straight games with the big club, picking up four goals over that span, so it wouldn't be surprising to see him back with the Senators sooner rather than later. |

Kelly scored two goals in Saturday's 8-5 loss to the Coyotes. - The 22-year-old came into the game with only three career goals in 21 NHL games, but Kelly lit the lamp twice in less than three minutes during the second period as the Senators tried to rally from a 4-0 deficit. Despite this outburst, he seems unlikely to move up the depth chart off the fourth line and into a role that might offer him more consistent fantasy value. |

Kelly was reassigned to AHL Belleville on Friday. - Kelly has suited up with the big club periodically this season, chipping in two points in 11 contests. He hasn't been super productive with Belleville, either, with nine points in 23 games, so the 22-year-old doesn't figure to provide much fantasy punch anytime soon. |

Kelly was promoted Tuesday from AHL Belleville. - Kelly has recorded nine points over 23 games with AHL Belleville in 2021-22. The 22-year-old has averaged 12:10 of ice time and lit the lamp once over his last five NHL performances. His last NHL appearance was in a 4-0 loss to Anaheim on Nov. 26. |
