The Set-up
The Sens (1-5-1) are still looking for their second win of the season following Wednesday's defeat at the hands of the Canucks (4-5-0).
D.J. Smith's side managed to throw a season high 43 shots on Thatcher Demko last night but only managed the single goal in a 5-1 loss.
Ottawa's lone goal came on a power play marker by Josh Norris pushing the team's season conversion rate on the man advantage to 13.8 per cent.
Roster Notes
The Senators didn't skate today but did recall Filip Chlapik from the taxi squad.
Additionally, defenceman Christian Wolanin has been placed on injured reserve retroactive to Jan. 27 after he left last night's game due to an injury.
Previous History
The Canucks have won the first two of nine scheduled contests between the two sides thus far, outscoring Ottawa 12-2 in the process.
After tonight, the two teams don't meet again until March 15 in Ottawa.
Who to Watch
As mentioned earlier, Norris had a goal power play goal last night and now finds himself in a three-way tie for the team lead in scoring at five points alongside Brady Tkachuk and Nikita Zaitsev.
Both of Norris' goals this season have been on the power play while his three power play points are tied for the most on the team alongside Drake Batherson.
