Pens set to take on surging Sens

January 28th, 2010 by Colin

The Pittsbugh Penguins will take on the Ottawa Senators tonight in Mellon Arena.

The Senators have won seven in a row and could match the franchise record of eight straight with a win tonight.

The last time the teams met the Penguins won 8-2, and the Senators had no defensive answer for the high flying Penguins, as Evgeni Malkin’s hat trick topped off what was unquestionably the worst loss of the season.

The Penguins look to get over their midseason slump with a victory tonight. They have won four of their last six.

The Pens will be playing without enforcer Eric Godard who is likely to miss four to six weeks with a groin injury. Bill Guerin will miss another game making way for the red-hot Chris Conner, who score two goals in his last game.
