The Ottawa Senators enter Tuesday as the first team out of the playoff picture in the Eastern Conference. They will have a chance to close some ground though, as they visit the Florida Panthers.

In an Eastern Conference matchup in the NHL on Tuesday night, the Ottawa Senators (38-24-10) will visit the Florida Panthers (35-35-3) at Amerant Bank Arena. This is a big game for the Senators, who, with less than 10 games to go in the season, are the first team out of a playoff spot in the Eastern Conference. They have 86 points in the standings, putting them two behind the Columbus Blue Jackets for the second Wild Card spot with one game in hand. They’ll try to continue to close that gap on Tuesday night, as the Blue Jackets take on the Metropolitan Division-leading Carolina Hurricanes.
