Senators continue road trip vs. Maple Leafs

Jan 3, 2009 - 11:18 AM Ottawa (13-17-5) at Toronto (15-17-6), 7:00 pm EST

TORONTO (Ticker) -- The Ottawa Senators will travel much closer to home on Saturday but will continue their season-high eight-game road swing against the Toronto Maple Leafs.

After losing on each of their first three stops on the trip, the Senators rebounded with a 3-2 victory over the Edmonton Oilers on Tuesday.

Jason Spezza and captain Daniel Alfredsson each recorded a goal and an assist for Ottawa, which has lost eight of its last 11 contests.

The Senators also will visit the New Jersey Devils, Buffalo Sabres and Boston Bruins before returning home on January 10 to host the New York Rangers.

The Maple Leafs have lost four of their last five games, including Thursday's 4-1 setback to the Sabres.

Toronto likely will put Vesa Toskala back in the crease after giving veteran Curtis Joseph two consecutive starts. Toskala is 13-12-5 with a 3.31 goals-against average and one shutout this season.

However, Toskala has allowed 14 goals over his last three contests - all losses.
