Oh, you guys like Jack Eichel? Hope you also like getting your butt kicked (hard) in Ottawa!
Whom
Senators vs. Las Vegas (don’t sell yourselves short, Nevada’s largest city, you’re not just “meadows” you’re “THE meadows”)
When
7:00 PM Ottawa Time (EDT)
Television
ESPN+
The Odds
Who needs ‘em? (LV -115; OTT -105; o/u 5½ [o-115]; English translation: We’re looking at about a 49% chance the Sens win, with the expected number of goals around 5.6)
The Opponent
Vegas just traded for Eichel, so that’s fun for them. Less fun for them is that they’re just 4-5-0 so far and are hardly ahead of last place in the Pacific. Good thing you can’t lose ground with a loss, (hopefully) losers!!
The Senators
Nikita Zaitsev is evidently not 100%, and thankfully, that means the Sens won’t play him. Hopefully that goes for when he’s even 99%. We only want your best, Nikita.
Filip Gustavsson’s getting another start in goal. Put your eye emojis where you wish. (Hope Murray’s ok, just got thinking about that head injury before the rough outing.)
