We're taking it outside tonight for the 2017 Scotiabank NHL 100 Classic and we've got the latest line-up news and insighter from the coach before the puck drops at Lansdowne.

Only one change from Wednesday and that's the return of Alex Burrows who missed his first game of the season against the Rangers this week. To make room, Nick Paul will be the extra forward this evening.
With his game roster finalized, Sens head coach Guy Boucher shifts his attention to the elements tonight and it starts with rolling all of his forwards consistently over the course of the game.
"That's what we've been doing for the last month," shared Boucher with the media on Saturday. "We've been on the road and we've been going with four lines. Everybody has been playing so it doesn't really change anything."
Deployment isn't the only detail the coach will be paying attention to on the bench this evening and he identified the length of each shift as another potential threat to keeping his players warm.
"Shift length is also something you need to look for," Boucher said. "Short shifts so that you stay activated and the next guys stay activated."

The good news is that the forecast looks clear of precipitation tonight so the players shouldn't be fighting against too much snow build up on the surface as the game goes on. That doesn't mean the frigid temperatures aren't going to play a factor according to Boucher.
"It is cold air that you're breathing and that's different," said the coach. "I've been told that's the hardest thing to get accustomed too in an outdoor game like this.."

In Goal

Craig Anderson (8-10-3) will start in goal for the Sens tonight at TD Place. Anderson picked up his first win in a little over a month on Wednesday night against the Rangers and is looking to secure back-to-back for the first time since the team's pair of wins in Sweden.
