With big roster moves announced in the past couple of days, in addition to an ongoing situation with defenceman Nikita Zaitsev, the unsettled Ottawa Senators arrive in Philadelphia as a team in fluctuation.
At practice yesterday, here’s how D.J. Smith’s group lined up:
Tkachuk - Pageau - C. Brown
Namestnikov - Tierney - Ennis
Duclair - Anisimov - White
Beaudin - L. Brown - Davidsson
Chabot - Hainsey
Borowiecki - Zaitsev
Lajoie - DeMelo
Anderson (starter)
Nilsson
Here’s what we can expect from the home squad, hoping to get some revenge for the last time these two teams played:
Giroux - Frost - Konecny
Lindblom - Couturier - Voracek
Laughton - Hayes - Farabee
Van Riemsdyk - Pitlick - Vorobyev
Provorov - Niskanen
Sanheim - Braun
Gostisbehere - Myers
Hart (starter)
Elliott
