Losing three straight games after an 8-2-1 stretch wasn’t ideal by any means, but the Ottawa Senators made up for it in spades on Tuesday.
Taking down the Boston Bruins is an accomplishment that not many teams have done this season. The Senators have done it twice and beat the Washington Capitals after that first victory over Boston, so here’s hoping history repeats itself tonight!
That said, the Capitals have recently gone from a team within striking distance of Ottawa, to, well, not that. They’re 9-1-0 in their last 10 games, and have the newly-appointed second-greatest goalscorer in NHL history, trailing only the Great One, Alexander Ovechkin.
