Complete Coverage >


So stick to the fight when you're hardest hit--
It's when things seem worst that you must not quit.

Tonight might be the last game of the year for the Senators. Win and they get to play another game. Lose and the season comes to a disappointing sudden stop. They promised their best last game and got a 7-4 loss for their troubles. Despite the defeat, they showed yet again they could take the play to the Penguins. Even without Filip Kuba, Alex Kovalev, and Milan Michalek, the Sens CAN win this game. They've shown it. Now they just have to do it.

All eyes on: Pascal Leclaire. It has come to this. Leclaire gets literally one more shot to be the hero for this team and if he can, all past sins will be forgiven. If he cannot, goaltending woes will continue to be the story for this franchise.

As always, you should join us in the comments section to enjoy this game.  It might be your last chance for months -- are you really gonna pass that up?
