Senators goalie Craig Anderson has a history of putting up big performances against his former teams, one of which is the Florida Panthers. He has a 5-0-1 career record, .931 save percentage and 2.13 goals-against average against the Cats.
– James Gordon via the Ottawa Citizen. With an 8-14-2-2 all-time mark against the Sens (and Boston up tomorrow), it’s safe to expect Jose Theodore will be backing up Scott Clemmensen this evening.
