Game 60 Hub: Ottawa Senators @ Anaheim Ducks
The Return of the Tank...no, we're not talking about Vladimir.
Yes, those are geese. And yes, the Ottawa Senators are a bottom-10 hockey team. None of this makes sense.
Oh well, the fact that they're not losing solely because of goaltending is a nice change of pace. Stay up at your own risk, we've got two really bad hockey teams going past midnight.
The Anaheim Ducks are 9-21-1 in their building, while the Senators have 0 wins west of the Eastern Time Zone this season. Talk about a stoppable force versus a moveable object!
Here's how the team lined up in practice yesterday. With Vladimir Tarasenko traded to Florida, expect the right wingers to move up a line, with the recently recalled Matthew Highmore drawing into the lineup.
Sens practice lines this afternoon in Anaheim.
