The Sens are in Florida tonight in what will be a game that goes a long way towards determining where both teams finishes at the end of the season. Ottawa currently trails the Panthers by just two points, with both teams having played the same number of games.
Craig Anderson gets the start in goal against his former team.
All the buzz around the Senators today remains focused on the newest addition in Stephane Da Costa. He is expected to make his debut in a Senators uniform on Saturday night against the Leafs.
