Ottawa wins 4-3 in the home opener against Montréal. In case you can't tell, I think the Senators will score plenty of goals this season but will once again struggle to keep them out. One or both of Jared Cowen and Mark Borowiecki will be terrible in this game.

4-3 Senators
GWG: Clarke MacArthur
The team will rebound against Montreal, as always. It’ll be a tight game, but MacArthur seems to do well against Price and beats him cleanly on the glove side. We all go wild.

GWG: Jean-Gabriel Pageau
Sure it's a back-to-back for the Sens but it is for the Habs too. Sens shouldn't have much trouble lighting the lamp, even with Montreal starting Mike Condon.

What's this? Silver Seven's biggest pessimist is calling for an undefeated first week? You better believe it.

GWG: Kyle Turris
Sens will finish off the week with a 3-0-0 record, winning an exciting game over the Habs on a hard Turris wristshot from the left circle with about 8 minutes to go in the third.

GWG: Tomas Plekanec
The Sens don't have much jump on the second of a back-to-back and fall to the Habs behind a stellar performance from Carey Price.

1-0 Canadiens
GWG: Max Pacioretty
Pacioretty scores the game winner in OT after a Pageau goal that should have counted, doesn’t.

Ross
5-4 Canadiens
GWG: Brendan Gallagher
One of the lowest-scoring teams with one of the best goalies, so naturally it'll be a slugfest. I think Montreal scrapes away the victory in the first of many meetings on the year.

I'm thinking they come back to their home fans and light up Carey Price like a Christmas tree once again. They sure do love playing Montreal.
