Bruins set to host Senators in MLK Day matinee
The Bruins are back from their California road trip that saw them go 1-1-1 and will be back on home ice this afternoon when they host the Ottawa Senators at TD Garden for a Martin Luther King, Jr. Day matinee. The B's will try to bounce back from a disappointing 4-3 shootout loss to the LA Kings on Saturday. Meanwhile, the Senators are riding a 2-game win streak after beating the Montreal Canadiens 4-2 on Saturday night.

Injury Report
"To be honest with you guys, I'm standing here right now with a bunch of question marks. It's going to be hard for me to answer today who's in and who's out, because I don't have the answers."

via Boston.com
Notes:
- It looks like both teams are pretty banged up right now.
- The Bruins have won 11 of their last 12 games against Ottawa, including their last 6 at TD Garden.
- The Bruins will be collecting donations for the earthquake victims in Haiti during today's game.
- The Bruins have sent defenseman Andy Wozniewski back down to Providence
- Ottawa has struggled mightily this year on the power play (13.8%, last in the NHL)
- Now that the Bruins have completed their West Coast trip, they will not leave the Eastern Time Zone for the rest of the season.
- The game starts at 1:00 and can be seen on NESN. If you have the day off from work or school, be sure to stop by for the Public Skate open thread starting at 12:30.

yeah, but what's he been contributing offensively?
I like the guy, I like his effort and he’s great on teh PK, I just thought that we were getting more of a chippy player than I’ve seen this year from him.
Who’s the new C that they called up? Any info on him?
