Media Round-Up: Islanders vs. Senators, Game 2 Edition
This evening's exhibition game against the New York Islanders wasn't televised, so here's a round-up of tweets from those who actually got to watch the game.
Ottawa played its second game of the day in Newfoundland against the New York Islanders. With the Islanders taking the first game 3-2 on a late goal, the Senators were looking for redemption. With Erik Karlsson, Kyle Turris, and Clarke MacArthur sporting letters on the jersey, tonight's leadership group is my ideal scenario.
