"The Senators are four points back of the New York Islanders for the second Eastern Conference wild-card spot, five back of the Boston Bruins for the first wild card, and also five back of the Montreal Canadiens for the No. 3 seed in the Atlantic."
"Stathletes projects the Canadiens to finish with the most points (101.0), earning the No. 3 spot in the Atlantic, with the Bruins (98.4) and Senators (98.0) earning the wild cards over the Islanders (96.0)."
"The Sens have lost both games to the Buffalo Sabres this season, with one game remaining (April 2), and won their only game against the Tampa Bay Lightning."
The Ottawa Senators face the New York Rangers while pursuing a playoff spot, trailing the Islanders and Bruins. With 12 games left, including seven against playoff teams, their chances hinge on upcoming performances. The Canadiens and Bruins also have challenging schedules, but projections favor Montreal for the No. 3 Atlantic spot. Ottawa's past performance against top teams shows mixed results, with losses to the Sabres and a win against the Lightning, indicating potential challenges ahead in their playoff quest.
