Ottawa signed veteran goalie James Reimer to help address its goaltending situation, and he is expected to start tonight in his first game of the season. Jonathan Quick is confirmed for New York, and he is 3-9-2 with a 2.80 goals-against average. Quick is going through the worst stretch of his career, losing 10 in a row, and he has surrendered 21 goals in his past five appearances. The Senators have won 13 of 19 against the Metropolitan Division, and the Rangers have lost five of their past six home games, seven of eight overall. Ottawa snapped a four-game skid with a 2-1 victory over Vancouver last night when Artem Zub and Jordan Spence scored 15 seconds apart in the first period. The Senators have won 12 of 17 Wednesday games, and New York has lost five straight after scoring two or fewer goals in its previous game. The Rangers have been outscored 22-8 in their past four games. Take the Senators.
