Game Day- Western Road Trip Ends in Dallas

These teams are both quite bad.

Normally, I would use the next few paragraphs to make some tongue-in-cheek comments about which team is worse but frankly I just don’t have enough time to blog today.

Here’s what you need to know- The Ottawa Senators are in 31st place in the National Hockey League coming into this one and the Dallas Stars have already lost as many games as the Senators have played.

Pretty impressive.

Here is a line up which for some reason, might include JC Beaudin. Although it sounds like Artem Anisimov is likely ready to go.

No morning skate today so just a best guess for now.

Tkachuk-Pageau-Brown
Namestnikov-Tierney-Duclair
Ennis-White-Ryan
Paul-Anisimov-Boedker

Chabot-Zaitsev
Brannstrom-Hainsey
Borowiecki-DeMelo

Anders Nilsson starts. The puck is dropping at 8:30 PM whether we like it or not. TSN5 has the broadcast.
