The Senators finally give some fans all that they want. That is to beat the Maple Leafs in a tough road game in Kanata. As always, Mike Hoffman is great and Erik Karlsson is also great.

Record: 29-23, 33 Points
0 Exact Scores, 4 Game Winning Goals

Saturday night against a bottom-five Leafs squad? You just know the Senators are going to lose. (as a Sens fan in Toronto, I’ve been scarred from these games too many times)

Record: 27-25, 32 Points

The Sens will deserve this one but goalie play will be the difference: the Leafs get a great performance from theirs, and the Sens do not

Record: 27-25, 29 Points

Ross
4-0 Senators
GWG: Mike Hoffman

Toronto's done trying for the season. Ottawa takes it in a walk.

Record: 23-29, 24 Points
0 Exact Scores, 1 Game Winning Goals

Trevor
3-2 Maple Leafs
GWG: Joffrey Lupul

Like what Ary said, I've seen this movie too many times. The Leafs are a team with a dearth of talent, but somehow Ottawa will find a way to lose this one.
