The Bruins are in Ottawa for the first of three games in a month’s span against teh Senators. Last time these two teams met all the way back in November (is that right?), Ottawa soundly defeated the B’s 3-1.
It’s expected that this game will have a playoff atmosphere since both teams are battling for position in the Atlantic; currently Ottawa has two points on Boston with two games in hand. (Seriously, when will the Sens ever be caught up with games? Next season?) Naturally, Tuukka is in net.
Tuukka Rask will be in goal for the Bruins tonight in Ottawa. No other lineup changes, per interim head coach Bruce Cassidy.

Bruins defenseman Adam McQuaid practiced this morning and feels god enough to play.
We get to see old friend Chris Kelly and old enemy Alex Burrows tonight.
What a fucking jerkface.

SENATORS TAROT CARD OF THE DAY
Bruins should win this one.
The Bruins can’t go ’empty net’ under Butch.
They just give up too many odd man rushes.
Ah well.
The Senators are better than you, Bruins and that doesn’t seem right.
Damn it.
And why is their goal horn so obnoxious?
Because they keep insisting on using Blur’s “Song 2”?
The look on Boucher’s face was priceless.
The zebras do owe the Bruins a slashing call tonight, but this will probably go away.
Fucking broken stick, come on
I’d like to have a huddle with the Bruins. You need to win this one guys. Really.
Brad was obviously listening to what I said.
Wonderful.
Especially on seeing the hook vs Pasta leading up to his hi-sticking penalty.
zzzzzzzzzzz…
Hey kids. I’m back. I hear the Bruins have been iffy tonight.
Yo! Iffy is right.
