Pregame: Penguins expect Senators to have prideful response
OTTAWA, Ontario – Say you had a really bad day at work. Messed up a bunch of stuff. The threat of an office shakeup loomed. Some of your best friends could be gone. Those goals you set? Not attained, of course. All because you had a bad day at work and messed up a bunch of stuff.
That’s essentially the situation the Ottawa Senators are confronted with, as they prepare for Game 6 of the Eastern Conference final against the Penguins on Tuesday night at Canadian Tire Centre.
They were embarrassed last time out. They want to keep playing. They’re also a much better team than the score of Sunday’s laugher (7-0) would indicate.
