Senators-Maple Leafs Preview and can be caught here: CBC (HD)
Ottawa (13-17-5) opened the season by winning three of its first four road games. But after a 2-1 victory at Florida on Oct. 30, it went 0-10-2 in its next 12 on the road, getting shut out three times and outscored 43-17 over that span.
After losing the first three games of their current trip, the Senators finally pulled out a win on Tuesday, beating Edmonton 3-2.
Their struggling provincial rivals could also use one, with the Maple Leafs (15-17-6) entering Saturday's game having dropped four of their last five. Ontario's two teams hold down the bottom two spots in the Northeast Division.
Toronto, which ranks 28th in the league with a 3.50 team goals-against average, has been outscored 23-9 in its last five games. Thursday's 4-1 home loss to Buffalo didn't help, as Curtis Joseph allowed four goals on just 20 shots.
