On the eve of their final preseason game against the Montreal Canadiens, the Ottawa Senators unveiled a lineup that turned heads during their practice session.

But it’s not necessarily this trio that’s drawing attention.

It’s rather the notable presence of Nick Cousins at practice that’s causing a stir.

Nick Cousins’ Presence in Senators’ Lineup Fuels Expectations Against Canadiens

Seeing his name included in the offensive combinations at practice, many fans are already expecting a heated night at the Bell Centre.

Reactions are multiplying on social media, with some suggesting it would be surprising to send him out in such a situation without consequence.

Whatever happens tomorrow, one thing is certain: the mere presence of Cousins in a practice lineup has been enough to reignite tensions with the Canadiens.

Honestly, I think everyone is now waiting to see what response the Canadiens will prepare on the ice.

And in my opinion, this final camp showdown will be very intense.
