The Boston Bruins take on the Ottawa Senators in a 1PM game on Monday afternoon.
While the Ottawa Senators were brutal last season, they're coming off an impressive win against the massively hyped Toronto Maple Leafs on Saturday.
The Bruins are coming off a 4-0 win against the Buffalo Sabres after taking a brutal loss to the Washington Capitals on opening night.
Tuukka Rask will get the start for the Bruins while the Sens will start their backup goalie, Mike Condon.
Brad Marchand made headlines in the Bruins opener for knocking out Capitals forward Lars Eller, but on Thursday he proved why he's one of the league's best as he put up a career high four assists in the 4-0 win against the Sabres.
Head coach Bruce Cassidy knows his team will have to be prepared against what could be a surprising Senators team.
