Biggest game of the year? Sure seems like it.
After grinding out a win over the New Jersey Devils on Thursday, the Ottawa Senators head into a crucial weekend back to back.
Leafs tonight. Jets tomorrow. The Canadiens are within reach and the teams at the bottom of the conference are closer than they seem.
In this paragraph I usually say something about the opposition. Their record. Their special teams. But in this case, it’s the Leafs. They suck and I hate them. And you should too.
Boucher met with the media this morning and said Bobby Ryan is a game time decision. If he can’t play, Curtis Lazar is in. Chris Neil will play while Freddy Claesson is expected to be a healthy scratch.
A best guess at the Ottawa line up.
Dzingel-Brassard-Stone
Smith-Turris-Hoffman
Pyatt-Pageau-Ryan
Wingels-Kelly-Neil
Methot-Karlsson
Phaneuf-Ceci
Borowiecki-Wideman
Craig Anderson gets the start in the Ottawa goal. Puck drop is scheduled for just after 7:00 PM.
