Hello, um, have you heard about the Sens? They are…
…in session.
*rockin’ guitar intro*
Whom
Senators vs. San José Sharks
When
7:00 PM Ottawa Time (EDT)
Television
ESPN+
The Odds
Sens -110; SJS -110; o/u 6 (u -120) [English translation: The Senators are about 50% likely to win and 50% likely to lose; the expected number of goals is something like 5.8]
The Opponent
The Sharks have won their first two, edging the Jets over the weekend back home before smoking the Canadiens on Tuesday night in Montréal. They weren’t supposed to be all that great, and it’s only two games in, and the odds have this as a tossup, so make of all of this whatever you wish.
The Senators
Matt Murray’s back healthy, and gets the start in goal. Brady Tkachuk will also make his season debut.
In other Tkachuk news, for the second straight year our man went with a Will Ferrell costume for Halloween, which the Senators scheduled this week. God bless him. Also got a Ghostbusters group costume evidently led by Michael Del Zotto, who they’re calling…Uncle Delly? These silly men.
