After being run over a little by the Sabres and Jack Eichel in the second game of the weekend’s back to back, the Senators look to rebound in Detroit. They face a Wings team that points in each of their last five games, but is still tied with Ottawa at 17 points.
Max Veronneau was called up yesterday, though the reasons for the recall aren’t fully clear. The best clue came from Bobby Ryan leaving practice yesterday, but that happened after Verroneau had been recalled. We might get some more insight when DJ Smith speaks to the media later this morning.
