Game 45 Preview and Open Thread: Montréal Canadiens @ Ottawa Senators
Eric Bolte-USA TODAY SportsWith last night’s defeat to the Detroit Red Wings, the Ottawa Senators have now lost six straight, and are 2-4-4 in their last 10 games. The Montréal Canadiens have lost three straight, and are a league-worst 1-8-1 over their last 10. Only one of these teams was supposed to make the playoffs this year, but instead, only six points separates the two in the standings.
The Sens won’t practice this morning, but we expect a similar lineup on the ice for D.J. Smith’s squad. Craig Anderson will be in net, and Mark Borowiecki will likely return to the lineup in place of Andreas Englund:
Tkachuk - Pageau - Brown
Duclair - Anisimov - Batherson
Balcers - White - Ennis
