A quick batch of headlines for tonight's game between the Ottawa Senators and Washington Capitals:

• With Pascal Leclaire's injury keeping him out, Mike Brodeur has been recalled for Ottawa. He'll back up Brian Elliott tonight. (@NHL_Sens)
• Three of four possible points on the road trip helped keep Ottawa from falling in the standings, but wasn't enough to help them climb the standings. (Citizen)
• But at least the Dad's road trip did raise their spirits! (Sun)
• Tough article on the fading Russian star in the NHL, with a brief mention of Sergei Gonchar. (IIHF)
• The Mayor is also not very keen on Gonchar. (SENS Town)
