The Senators entered the weekend with the potential to take over the Atlantic Division with back-to-back games against the Canadiens. Now they sit four points behind the Habs, but still four points up on the third-place Bruins despite the Bs having won four of their last five.
Brad Marchand is on a tear. He’s third in the league in points, second in goals, and pushing his way into the MVP conversation. The good news is that Tuukka Rask has cooled off, likely due to playing 56 out of 71 games for the Bruins so far this season.
