The Atlanta Trashers roll into town on a 2 game winning streak. John Paddock and the Ottawa Senators need to ensure that they’re not caught off guard by a good team with a bad record.
A few game notes:
- Jason Spezza is out with a groin injury
- Dean McAmmond will suit up for the first time since the Steve Downie incident. He is expected to lineup in the middle of Christoph Schubert and Shean Donovan on the 4th line
- Expect Randy Robitaille to take a few shifts on the top line while Spezza is out. Dean McAmmond, Mike Fisher and Chris Kelly may also get some ice-time with Dany Heatley and Daniel Alfredsson
- Marian Hossa should be in the lineup tonight for the Trashers, he has only collected 3 points this season
- No word on who’s starting in goal but expect Ray Emery to get his2nd start of the season
