For the second time in four nights, the Montreal Canadiens find themselves facing a four point game. Unfortunately, with their season winding down, it's not the type of four point game they would have hoped to be involved in.
This time last year, the Habs and Ottawa Senators were playing meaningful hockey games, working to cement their playoff position en route to a first round battle. Now, they find themselves fighting for draft position instead.
Both teams have had injuries, bad luck, and poor decision-making contribute to their fate this year. But with that fate all but sealed, they should have little choice but to embrace their rivalry again tonight.
