Ottawa coach Guy Boucher pointed out that all three home teams that played in the Stanley Cup Playoffs on Tuesday were trailing in their series and won Game 4. Boucher expects the Bruins will match the desperation of those teams, and he thinks the Senators will be ready.
"We're expecting their very, very best and their most desperate game of the year," Boucher said. "We know exactly what's coming tonight; we're not going to be surprised by how hard they're coming and how much they've prepared and how much they want this game, that's for sure. Our expectation is that this is going to be their very, very best and their hardest. We know that."
