Senators' Cole Reinhardt: Returned to minor-league affiliate

Reinhardt was reassigned to AHL Belleville on Friday, Bruce Garrioch of the Ottawa Sun reports.

Reinhardt's demotion suggests Drake Batherson (illness), Dylan Gambrell (illness) or Tim Stutzle (knee) will likely be ready to return Saturday versus the Rangers. Reinhardt's picked up 26 points through 60 AHL appearances this season.
