Ottawa looks to avoid a four-game road losing streak with a win tonight while Boston is 12-0-2 in their last 14 games at the TD Garden and will hope to extend their winning streak at TD Garden to eight. The first time these two teams met, the Senators defeated the Bruins 4-2 in Ottawa on Nov. 15.
The Bruins won seven out of their last nine games heading into the holiday break and will look to pick up right where they left off after coach Claude Julien notched his 400th win before the break.
"Right now, you hope as a coach, that there's a lot more ahead for you so I'm looking for a little bit more than just 400 wins," Julien said via NHL.com.
The Senators went 1-2-1 in their last four games before the three-day break, but ended on a strong note with a 5-0 victory over the Pittsburgh Penguins.
"[The Penguins] got some momentum in the second but our [penalty] killers did a great job," said Senators goalie Craig Anderson, according to NHL.com. "When we had the puck on our stick we made sure we got it down 200 feet."
Anderson is 10-9-4 this season with a 3.27 goals-against average and a .901 save percentage while Boston goaltender Tuukka Rask is 19-8-2 with a 1.87 GAA and a .936 save percentage.
The Senators have been paced offensively by Erik Karlsson, who leads all NHL defenseman with 37 points off of 10 goals and 27 assists while Bobby Ryan has 17 tallies and 17 helpers for 34 points and Jason Spezza has found the twine 11 times and added 19 assists for 30 points.
David Krejci leads the Bruins with 32 points off of seven goals and 25 assists while Reilly Smith has lit the lamp 12 times and added 16 assists for 28 points and Milan Lucic has 12 markers and 14 helpers for 26 points.
The Senators look to snap a three-game road losing streak while the Bruins hope to keep up their strong play on home ice when the puck drops at the TD Garden tonight in Boston.
