The Ottawa Senators may not be playing for much these last few games in terms of the standings, but for some of their younger players it’s the opportunity of a lifetime. Contrast tonight’s projected line-up with the skaters that were deployed for the first game of the season and you can hardly call it the same team. Only one (!) defenseman, Nikita Zaitsev, is the same while fully four of the twelve forwards are different. If you’re looking for a reason to watch the last few games of a lost season, a look at the future of the future of the franchise is as good as any.
