Cowboys QB Dak Prescott to undergo season-ending surgery

Dallas Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott is set to undergo season-ending hamstring surgery, team owner Jerry Jones confirmed on a radio show Tuesday.

TORONTO — Linus Ullmark made 26 saves for his first shutout of the season as the Ottawa Senators blanked the Toronto Maple Leafs 3-0 on Tuesday.

Josh Norris, Tim Stutzle and Michael Amadio scored for Ottawa (8-7-0). Artem Zub added two assists. Ullmark’s shutout was the ninth of his career.

Anthony Stolarz stopped 37 shots for Toronto (9-6-2), which saw its three-game winning streak come to an end.

The teams met for the first time since Leafs defenceman Morgan Rielly cross-checked Ridly Greig up high after the Senators forward took a slapshot into an empty net on a breakaway in a 5-3 victory Feb. 10. Rielly was suspended five games for the incident.

Toronto captain Auston Matthews missed a fourth straight contest with an upper-body injury. Veteran winger Max Pacioretty, meanwhile, is out week-to-week after suffering a lower-body injury in Saturday’s 4-1 victory over the Montreal Canadiens.

Ottawa centre Shane Pinto (undisclosed) returned to action following an eight-game absence.
