Coming off a strong performance against the New Jersey Devils, the Ottawa Senators prepare to host the league leading Anaheim Ducks. Viewers in the Senators region can watch the action live on TSN5 at 7:30pm et/8:30 at. You can also listen to the game live on TSN Radio 1200 Ottawa. The Senators benefitted from a quality performance in net from Craig Anderson, who stopped 34 shots to record his third shutout of the season, 2-0 against the Devils on Wednesday. The victory closed a 2-0-1 trip and marked a much-needed reprieve for the Senators, who had trudged through a nine-game stretch that resulted in seven losses and the firing of head coach Paul MacLean. Anderson had lost nine of 11 starts since shutting out Minnesota on Nov. 6. Things werent going as badly as they looked, Anderson told Ottawas official site. I just had a couple bad bounces here and there. Hopefully, my luck changed for the good tonight. We can leave here with five out of six points on this road trip and feel good about what we accomplished, but we need to straighten up some things, get better in some areas ... I think we all know that and were all going to be better, and we know it. The Senators offense offers a balanced attack, yet still ranks towards the bottom of the NHL with 28.8 shots per game. Clarke MacArthur leads the team with nine goals as one of nine players with at least six this season. Defenseman Erik Karlsson, who has 21 points, may pose the strongest threat, but hes been held off the scoresheet in three of the last four games. The Ducks will try to win for the fourth time on their trip. Anaheim (22-7-5) bounced back from Tuesdays tough 6-2 loss at Toronto with a 2-1 victory in Montreal on Thursday, improving to 3-1 on the trip and to 5-1-1 this season in Canada. The Ducks have also won in Edmonton and at Winnipeg on the current swing. After giving up four goals on 20 shots before being yanked early in the third period against the Maple Leafs, Frederik Andersen had 23 saves versus the Canadiens. Good teams never want to lose two in a row, left wing Matt Beleskey told the teams official website. Thats a big goal of ours. We came out tonight, Freddy played great and we played a sound game all night. We got two good points. The Ducks have now won eight of their last nine overall, scoring at least four goals fives times in that span. When the offense has gone quiet, theyve gotten strong performances from Andersen, who has stopped 92 of 97 shots in Anaheims last four wins. Our resiliency has been great all year, said coach Bruce Boudreau. No team wins without good goaltending. When you get good goaltending, and we play the way we do, were usually successful. With the finale of the trip serving as the tail end of a back-to-back, Ilya Bryzgalov could get his first start since joining the Ducks on Dec. 9. He allowed two goals on seven shots in just over 14 minutes in relief of Andersen on Tuesday. Ryan Getzlaf has been red-hot for the Ducks, recording 16 points since Nov. 29. That top-level production has also been on display in his career against the Senators. He has four goals and six assists in seven matchups with Ottawa, which lost the most recent meeting 2-1 at home on Oct. 25, 2013. Anaheim is 7-0-1 in its last eight against the Senators.

Nike Air Max 90 Outlet . In his first game with Boston University, the 17-year-old Eichel picked up five assists as his Boston University Terriers thumped St. TORONTO -- Ricky Ray and Chad Owens heeded their coachs call Saturday. Ray threw for 407 yards and three TDs while Owens amassed 248 all-purpose yards and a touchdown as the Toronto Argonauts stunned the Saskatchewan Roughriders 48-15 before a sparse Rogers Centre gathering of 17,758. The win was redemption for Toronto (1-1), coming off a dismal 45-21 season-opening loss in Winnipeg. Whats more, Saskatchewan (1-1) began its Grey Cup defence registering 10 sacks in a lopsided 31-10 home win over the Hamilton Tiger-Cats. On Friday, Argos head coach Scott Milanovich said he was looking forward to seeing which of his players would step up against the defending CFL champions. "Those were two of the guys I expected to do that," Milanovich said of Ray and Owens. "I guess I just expect it at this point. "Last week wasnt good . . . I think our pride was hurt, I think we were embarrassed by the way we showed up. Professional athletes are very competitive, very prideful and to take a whooping like that when you didnt see it coming, that sticks with you. It mayve been a good thing for us in the longterm to kind of open your eyes and show us we need to step up every week." Toronto quickly took control, surging to a 17-1 half-time lead that swelled to 24-1 just five minutes into the second half. Being firmly ahead allowed the Argos to continue utilizing their entire playbook and maintaining a balanced attack to keep Saskatchewans defence guessing. Toronto ran for 161 yards with sophomore Curtis Steele rushing for 59 yards and two TDs on eight carries while rookie Antony Coombs added 52 yards on six carries. Ray also got into the act, running four times for 32 yards. Falling behind forced Saskatchewans run-first offence to go to the air 33 times -- compared to just 15 rushing plays. That allowed Torontos defence to come after Riders quarterback Darian Durant, sacking him five times (four in the second half) and registering two Antwuan Molden interceptions. The newcomer took one 108 yards for a TD late in the game. "I thought it was a key that we get out to a lead . . . it allowed us to stay balanced and continue to mix it up a little bit with our ground game," Milanovich said. "It gave our defence a little confidence playing with the lead and let them come after the quarterback." Torontos defence, which opened the season with just four returning starters, had four more new faces against Saskatchewan. Cornerback Vincent Agnew, safety Jermaine Gabriel, linebacker Molden and defensive tackle Marcus Thomas all started as cornerback Matt Ware, linebacker Jamie Robinson and safety Matt Black went on the injured list while defensive lineman Greg Romeus was placed on the practice roster. But Toronto didnt emerge unscathed as linebacker Shea Emry (head) and slotback Andre Durie (shoulder) were injured. Milanovich wasnt sure how severe either was. Ray completed 29-of-37 passes, many being short underneath tosses that alllowed his receivers to quickly get upfield and gain yards after the catch.dddddddddddd Owens was especially effective, registering 11 catches for 159 yards and a TD while also returning six punts for 89 yards. "Hes so shifty out there," Ray said of Owens. "I just got to get the ball into his hands and hes going to cut all the way across the field and make guys miss and turn short gainers into big plays for us. "Its nice to have a guy like him who makes my job easier. Im not having to throw it 30 yards downfield, Im just throwing the little short ones and hes taking it 40 yards." Owens said it was important for Toronto to rebound from its opening-season loss. "You never want to start the season 0-1, let alone 0-2," he said. "We knew it was a must-win game for us and playing Saskatchewan we knew it was going to be a battle. "Even after the first half I wasnt satisfied with the lead just knowing how quickly they could score." Saskatchewan made it interesting in the third after Rays 14-yard TD strike to Jason Barnes put Toronto ahead 24-1. Durant hit Taj Smith with a 59-yard touchdown strike at 10:22 before finding Antony Allen on a nine-yard toss at 13:16 to pull the Riders to within 25-15. But thats as close as Saskatchewan got as Swayze Waters 40-yard field goal to open the fourth put Toronto ahead 28-15. Durant finished 17-of-29 passing for 295 yards with two TDs and two interceptions. Allen ran for 158 yards on 27 carries last weekend against the Ticats but was held to 66 yards on nine carries versus Toronto. Riders head coach Corey Chamblin admitted he was shocked by the one-sided outcome. "We didnt think the game would turn out this way," he said. "But you have to be perfect to win against Ricky Ray. "I felt we didnt have a good practice and we were not good enough to win off a short week." Durant sensed the Argos defence was intent on redemption following its performance last weekend in Winnipeg. "They had a great defensive gameplan," he said. "They came out after the loss last week and wanted to perform for their fans at the home opener. "We played against a good football team and a great quarterback." Mike Bradwell had Torontos other TD. Waters added five converts, two field goals and a single. Saskatchewans Chris Milo had two converts and a single. NOTES -- Since 2008, Durant has started 12 of Saskatchewans 13 games versus Toronto, the exception being Aug. 9, 2008 when former Argo Michael Bishop was under centre. During that span, the Argos have had seven different quarterbacks face the Riders . . . Slotback Chris Getzlaf and offensive lineman Levy Adcock were Saskatchewans pre-game scratches. Linebacker Greg Jones and defensive lineman Delano Johnson were Torontos scratches . . . Riders defensive back Dwight Anderson celebrated his 33rd birthday Saturday . . .
