More of that, please.

On the heels of one of their best performances of the season and certainly the most entertaining game they’ve played in the last couple months, the Ottawa Senators are right back at it tonight against the Boston Bruins.

The team that cruised to a 5-4 win over the Columbus Blue Jackets last night was almost unrecognizable.

They were aggressive, they were creating chances and they were dictating the pace of the game.  Performances like that have been few and far between for the Senators this season.

Now they’ll look to build off it as they host the same Boston Bruins  team that embarrassed them just a few days ago.

No game day skate today but Guy Boucher will meet with the media at 4:30 PM today to outline his line up.  The Senators are expected to go with the same line up as last night vs. Columbus.

Dzingel-Duchene-Ryan
Hoffman-Brassard-Stone
Pyatt-Chlapik-Pageau
Paul-Thompson-Burrows

Oduya-Karlsson
Phaneuf-Ceci
Harpur-Chabot

Mike Condon gets the start in the Ottawa goal. Puck drop is scheduled for just after 7:00 PM.
