KEY GAME INFORMATION
OTTAWA: LAST SEASON: 37-31-14, 88 points, finished 11th in the Eastern Conference and missed the playoffs.
COACH: Paul MacLean, fourth season with Ottawa, 102-79-30.
ADDED: RW Alex Chiasson, C David Legwand.
LOST: RW Alex Hemsky, C Jason Spezza.
PLAYER TO WATCH: Bobby Ryan. The right winger is in the final year of a five-year, $25.5 million deal, and according to general manager Bryan Murray has decided to wait before determining whether to re-sign. Murray noted the sides will talk ''in October or November to get something done.''
OUTLOOK: It was only 2012 and 2013 when many thought Ottawa was a franchise on the ascent after back-to-back playoff appearances. Now the Senators are facing an uncertain future as Ottawa lost centers Daniel Alfredsson and Spezza the last two offseasons. There is a very real possibility the organization may have to deal Ryan and Methot during the season if the players cannot come to terms with the team. It is not a playoff formula.
MONTREAL: LAST SEASON: 46-28-8, 100 points; lost to New York Rangers in Eastern Conference final.
COACH: Michel Therrien, seventh season with Canadiens, 287-224-23-58.
ADDED: D Tom Gilbert, C Manny Malhotra, RW P.A. Parenteau, RW Jiri Sekac.
LOST: C Daniel Briere, RW Brian Gionta, D Josh Gorges, LW Thomas Vanek.
PLAYER TO WATCH: P.K. Subban: The 43rd overall pick in the 2007 draft solidified his status as a top-five defenseman in the NHL following a 2013-14 regular season in which he recorded 53 points (10 goals, 43 assists) in 82 games, and added another 11 (five goals and six assists) in 17 playoff games. And he isn't going anywhere. The Canadiens and Subban agreed to an eight-year, $72 million contract in the offseason.
OUTLOOK: The Canadiens earned the ire of playoff foes Boston and New York for on-ice antics and their off-ice loquaciousness. But teams don't dislike opponents who aren't good. The Canadiens are just that, and should find themselves in the playoffs come April.

*Senators-Canadiens Preview* ============================

By JACK CASSIDY STATS Writer

Ottawa At Montreal, Game Five, 7:00 p.m. EDT

Having essentially been in must-win mode since mid-February, the Ottawa Senators' desperate play in a Game 4 victory against the Montreal Canadiens came as no surprise.

Neither should a similar effort in Game 5 on Friday night, when the Senators will again try to stave off elimination as their opening series shifts back to the Bell Centre.

"It feels like we've been playing games like this for awhile now," defenseman Erik Karlsson said. "Our approach hasn't really changed."

The urgency may seem identical, but a dramatic postseason run for Ottawa would not exactly resemble their regular-season surge. Andrew Hammond played the hero's role in the season's second half, going 20-1-2 from Feb. 18-April 11 with a 1.73 goals-against average to lead the Senators to an unlikely wild-card berth.

Now the goaltending duties have fallen to Craig Anderson, who dazzled in Game 4 with 28 saves to earn the third postseason shutout of his career in a 1-0 win.

Mike Hoffman scored the lone goal midway through the third period to help give Ottawa its first win of the playoffs. The Senators, who have scored first in every game of the series, lost each of the first three by one goal - including twice in overtime.

"We have a hard road to travel and there's no reason why we can't be in the next game also," Anderson told the team's official website. "We've been in all four games now. We've been right there. They've all been one-goal games.

"We just need to make sure we're ready to go and bring it all again."

Offense has been difficult to come by against Montreal goaltender Carey Price. After surrendering three goals in Game 1, Price has allowed just four behind a .959 save percentage, while the Canadiens' offense has averaged 2.25 goals in the series.

That has largely been the formula for Montreal all season. Price's .933 save percentage was the best for a goalie with at least 60 starts since Dominik Hasek's .937 in 1998-99, but the Canadiens scored just 2.61 goals per game - ranked 20th in the NHL.

Price has lost four consecutive starts in a postseason series only once in his career (2009), and only four teams in NHL history - Toronto (1942), the New York Islanders (1975), Philadelphia (2010) and Los Angeles (2014) - have erased a 3-0 series deficit.

"We need to get bodies in front of (Price) and make it hard for him to save it," Hoffman said after scoring with the help of a screen by linemate Mika Zibanejad on Wednesday. "More times than not if he sees the puck he's probably going to save it. Mika did a great screen for me there and if he wasn't there it would probably not go in."

Price was equally dominant both at home and away, but he'll play behind an offense that has thrived at the Bell Centre. The Canadiens scored 2.95 goals per game in Montreal this season compared with 2.27 on the road.

"When the series shifted to Ottawa, we came in focused on getting the first win, and then were even hungrier for the second. As a whole, though, winning one out of two in a tough building is still a good result," coach Michel Therrien told the Canadiens' website.

"The good news is now we'll go back home and have the energy of our crowd behind us. We're all excited for Friday."

Neither team's power play has been especially successful in this series. Ottawa converted on two of its five opportunities in Game 1 but has gone 1 for 7 since, while the Canadiens are 1 for 16 in the series.
