A rested Sens team at home catches a Boston team that played last night and had to travel. This is the difference with the Bruins unable to keep up at the end.

Record: 19-16, 22 Points
0 Exact Scores, 3 Game Winning Goals

GWG: Mark Stone

I think the Sens will split the series with the Bruins, but will come back energized after the break. Stone pots the game winner on a mid third period marker.

Record: 17-18, 19 Points
2 Exact Scores, 0 Game Winning Goals

4-1 Bruins
GWG: Loui Eriksson

Sens come out flat after the break, and pay for it against a Bruins team hungry to catch the division lead.

Callum
3-2 Bruins
GWG: Brad Marchand

I thought the Bruins were going to be garbage this year. And then they weren't garbage, in fact, they're looking very good and might be they best team in the Atlantic right now. So, hopefully I'll be wrong about tonight's game as well.

4-2 Senators
GWG: Bobby Ryan

The Sens crawled into the holiday break, but will explode for 4 goals against the Bruins to give them a much needed win.

Bobby Ryan returns and all is right in Sens-land for at least one night.

Record: 21-14, 22 Points
0 Exact Scores, 1 Game Winning Goals

Ross
3-2 Bruins
GWG: Loui Eriksson

This will be a heartbreaker. Watch for Ottawa to fight for ever inch after a well-deserved Christmas break, only for Eriksson to clinch it with a goal in the final minute.

Record: 18-17, 19 Points
0 Exact Scores, 1 Game Winning Goals

Trevor
4-3 Senators
GWG: Alex Chiasson

Ottawa is able to bounceback after a putrid performance in Florida as the Christmas break helped in getting their minds re-set.
