As inconvenient as this four-game winning streak is for the ol’ draft lottery percentages (which I can’t possibly pretend to care about, by the way), it is enjoyable to watch the Ottawa Senators senselessly ruin the season of others.
They’ll look to do more of the same when they visit the suddenly reeling Winnipeg Jets.
We’ll assume the Sens roll with the same lineup as the other night against the Hawks.
Tkachuk-Pinto-Batherson
Crookshank-Stützle-Giroux
Kubalik-Greig-Joseph
Katchouk-Kastelic-Kelly
Sanderson-Zub
Kleven-Brannstrom
Chychrun-Bernard-Docker
Joonas Korpisalo starts.
Puck drop is scheduled for 7:08 PM in Mannnnnnnitoba. The game is available on Sportsnet West and City TV but let’s not allow that to ruin an otherwise pleasant evening. TSN1200 has the radio broadcast and our ol’ buddy Bort is back in the saddle and ready to sling all the illegal internet streams we can handle.
And now…presenting, the table of the heads, more affectionately known as the HEAD2HEAD table.
