The Senators are not a great team but Lumbus under Torts are special bad. The only scare for the Senators is the first time the Lumbus cannon sounds.

Record: 30-26, 34 Points
0 Exact Scores, 4 Game Winning Goals

3-2 Senators
GWG: Jean-Gabriel Pageau

Every other team is running over the Blue Jackets, so it’s only natural that the Sens have a tough time.

Record: 28-28, 34 Points

This is a should-win for the Sens. Lumbus is a bad team that is down a few goaltenders.

Record: 27-29, 31 Points
3 Exact Scores, 1 Game Winning Goals

Callum
4-3 Blue Jackets
GWG: Nick Foligno

Remember when Robin Lehner broke his stick over his leg Bo-Jackson-style after the loss against Lumbus last year? That was fun.

Record: 29-27, 39 Points
4 Exact Scores, 6 Game Winning Goals

6-1 Senators
GWG: Mike Hoffman

Sens light up the lowly Blue Jackets in a big way.

Columbus is having a terrible year and I can't see much reason the Sens won't just cruise past them.

Record: 29-27, 32 Points
0 Exact Scores, 3 Game Winning Goals

Ross
3-2 Senators
GWG: Erik Karlsson

This is a good game for the Sens from start to finish, although a late goal makes it look closer than it should've been.

Record: 25-31, 26 Points
0 Exact Scores, 1 Game Winning Goals

Trevor
6-1 Senators
GWG: Jean-Gabriel Pageau

The Blue Jackets are bad. Really bad. Last time in Columbus, Ottawa won 7-3 and I'd expect a similar result this time around, even though Ottawa hasn't played like a playoff team.

Record: 27-29, 36 Points
3 Exact Scores, 6 Game Winning Goals
