Today this faithful Wednesday, we look at our predictions for the Ottawa Senators this upcoming season, whether it be scoring, points, either way something like that. It will be an interesting year, and you must remember anything can happen. Last year I predicted Ottawa would finish 8th in the East, which came true, you know the playoff part. Obviously the finished 5th.
Either way, here we go all!…
