Who: Pittsburgh Penguins (12-10-5) @ Ottawa Senators (12-14-3)
I had this long preview typed up and then the draft cleared. Oof, tough one to come back through, so here’s an abbreviated and half-assed effort for your Saturday afternoon.
The Ottawa Senators are on a two-game losing streak, dropping both ends of a home-and-home this week with the Montreal Canadiens. Both were by an identical 5-2 score.
Ottawa does have a pretty strong 9-5-2 home record though, including a Saturday night win over the Pens 6-4 a couple of weeks ago.
