This game marks the 92nd that the NHL has postponed this season.
Ottawa currently has nine players on the COVID-19 protocol list, Thomas Chabot, Chris Tierney, Zach Sanford, Anton Forsberg, Josh Norris, Tyler Ennis, Nick Paul, Dillon Heatherington, and Jacob Bernard-Docker. This season, the Sens have had 11 games postponed so far.
Over at FanDuel Sportsbook, the line on the Senators not making the playoffs is -6000. Ottawa is 30th with a 9-18-2 record and has lost three straight games.
The Senators’ next game is now January 8 against the Canucks.
You would think it would be tough to make the 30th place team worse, but removing nine players from the roster will do the job.
COVID-19 has been wreaking havoc on all professional sports, so before any game gets underway, you should visit FanDuel Sportsbook for the latest odds.
