Andrew Hammond manning the crease for Ottawa

Ottawa Senators goalie Andrew Hammond will get the nod for Ottawa on Tuesday against the Pittsburgh Penguins.

What It Means:

Hammond allowed three goals on 36 shots the Senators' loss to the Philadelphia Flyers on Saturday. Hammond has gone 2-2-0 with a 1.77 goals against average, .936 save percentage and one shutout in his last four starts. He draws a tough test tonight with the Penguins in town. Pittsburgh has won six in a row while averaging an absurd 5.17 goals per game.

We project Hammond to allow 2.61 goals on 28.08 shots with a 47 percent chance of getting the victory. He's our 15th-ranked goalie for Tuesday's 11-game slate.
