In their second game after the All-Star break, the Ottawa Senators (17-23-9) will look to get their first win of the season’s final stretch, as they’re in Buffalo tonight to take on the Sabres (22-20-7).
The Sens are in the second game of a back-to-back, having dropped a 4-3 shootout decision to the New Jersey Devils on home ice, last night. The Sabres, meanwhile. are returning to action for the first time since their week off.
Having faced over 50 shots last night, my guess is D.J. Smith will give Marcus Hogberg a break, and start Craig Anderson tonight.
