San Jose Sharks vs Ottawa Senators Prediction
I’m on the Sharks here. I just can’t trust the Senators in any way shape or form laying this price, especially on the road where they’ve been far less effective so far this season. San Jose’s shown some fight at home and they just walloped the Kings last time out and I think they hold some value here too. Give me the Sharks.
