Carolina Hurricanes (15-5-1) vs. Ottawa Senators (4-14-1)
In case you didn’t realize it, the Ottawa Senators are struggling mightily this season. They’ve lost five straight, have four wins total, and have yet to win consecutive games this season. Their biggest storylines so far this season have been a COVID outbreak, waiving their very expensive goalie, and Brady Tkachuk getting bitten in a fight.
There hasn’t been a lot of talk about the hockey they’re playing, and probably for good reason. The Senators allow the most goals per game in the league, they’re 27th in terms of goals scored, and there don’t seem to be any answers forthcoming from the front office.
