The Return of Captain Giggles.
The bigger storyline is Lehner getting the start. Are the Sens secretly tanking? Are they just trying to keep their backup sharp by starting him against a weaker opponent? Are they showcasing Lehner for a trade? Are the getting Lehner ready to takeover soon once Anderson is traded? Who knows. The Sens have had 8 days off, so it's not like Anderson really needs extra rest at this point, and by all indications they are still taking a run at a playoff spot. Maybe they figure Lehner will be ultrasharp given the fact that Dallas lit him up for 5 goals a couple weeks ago.
This is as "must-win" as a game can get at this point in the season. We gotta make up ground.
