Senators Team Report
(Sat, 21 Nov 2009 00:39:53 PST)
Entering Thursday's game against the Penguins, the Senators had defeated just one team—the New York Islanders—that was occupying one of the league's 16 playoff spots.
Starting with the Penguins, they were about to be put to the test—four consecutive games against four division leaders.
They passed the first part with flying colors, steamrolling the defending champs by four goals. The win gave the Senators their first two-game streak since back-to-back victories Oct. 15-17.
Next up are the Sabres on Saturday in what will be the fourth of a five-game homestand for the Senators.
Whereas the Penguins were using fill-ins on their injury-riddled blue line, the Sabres could be battling some fatigue when they visit Ottawa.
