After going an impressive 3-1-0 on their latest road trip, the Ottawa Senators are back home to try and avenge their last game in Vancouver. While the games between these two teams have almost no impact, seeing the team play well down the stretch is crucial for the youngsters’ confidence and to assess the direction of this team going forward.
The biggest loss from last game may have been the injury to Matt Murray who was playing extremely well after coming back from injury, posting two shutouts in the process. While there are no details on Matt Murray or Anton Forsberg, the Sens have recalled both Filip Gustavsson and Kevin Mandolese from the Belleville Senators which indicates that the two may be out for more than just tonight’s game.
