Despite a tougher end to the road trip for Kent Hughes and the Montreal Canadiens, management still received some good news on Monday morning.<\/p>\n

The Ottawa Senators fell to the Dallas Stars by a score of 6-1 and have only one win in their last four games.<\/p>\n

So not only did the Canadiens’ next opponents take a beating, and already have fragile confidence, but this loss by the Sens to the Dallas Stars also allowed the Habs to strengthen their hold on third place in the Atlantic Division.<\/p>\n

Good news for the Montreal Canadiens with the loss suffered by the Ottawa Senators<\/p>\n

It’s excellent for the Atlantic Division standings.<\/p>\n

“With the Sens losing vs the Stars tonight, the Habs remain 3rd in the Atlantic division and the only Canadian team currently in a playoff spot.<\/p>\n

MTL will face OTT at the Bell Centre on Tuesday.”<\/p>\n

Tuesday night’s game will therefore be a very important one for the Eastern Conference standings and for the NHL playoff race, so it’s really shaping up to be intense, which can only be good news for fans.<\/p>\n

In your opinion, who will go further this season, the Montreal Canadiens or the Ottawa Senators?<\/p>\n

Brady Tkachuk, 26, has collected 4 points in 5 games this season since returning to action.<\/p>\n
