The Ottawa Senators will look to fend off elimination on home ice Saturday night as they host the Toronto Maple Leafs at Canadian Tire Centre for Game 4 of their first-round playoff series.
After years of heavy scrutiny for early playoff exits, the Maple Leafs are on the cusp of rewriting the narrative. Following a gritty win in Game 3, Toronto stands just one victory away from a clean sweep. The Leafs, who caught fire late in the regular season by winning six of their last seven road contests, now have a golden opportunity to knock out a bitter rival in their backyard.
Meanwhile, the Senators entered the postseason riding high on confidence. Though they've lost their last two matchups by a combined margin of just two goals, the scoreboard hasn't been kind. Ottawa’s strong home form throughout the regular season gives them reason for hope, even after dropping their first playoff game at Canadian Tire Centre. They'll be banking on the energy of the home crowd to spark a much-needed turnaround.
