Hopefully Jared Cowen and Mark Borowiecki are not a pairing any more by the time this game comes around.

4-1 Senators
GWG: Shane Prince
The Sens make this a winning week by taking advantage of a meh Canes team that needs 1-2 more years to build themselves back into playoff contention.
Record: 5-8, 6 Points

The Sens always have trouble scoring in Carolina, and I don't think Hammond is up to the shutout tonight.

The Senators always seem to have tight, low scoring games with the Hurricanes. It’s so weird. Like the whole Buffalo thing.

5-1 Senators
GWG: Kyle Turris
Sens fill the net on "Point Night" in Carolina and the shutout bid would fall just short on a third period goal by the Canes.

Carolina is a good team with questionable goaltending. The 'Canes will be the better team but Ottawa will get solid goalie play and win the day.

4-2 Hurricanes
GWG: Noah Hanifin
This, like the games against the Devils and Coyotes, is a near-guaranteed win. Therefore, I predict Ottawa to look flat from start to finish. Look for young Hanifin to get his first NHL goal, because why not?

Trevor
5-1 Hurricanes
GWG: Jeff Skinner
I'll be honest, I had to look up the Hurricanes roster to see who was on it. Skinner seems like a good candidate to score, and because they aren't a very good team, I'm definitely expecting a terrible loss. Ottawa did this recently vs. the Coyotes, and I wouldn't be surprised to see another poor performance against a non-playoff team.
