Senators continue long road trip in Buffalo

Jan 6, 2009 - 1:09 PM Ottawa (13-18-6) at Buffalo (19-15-5), 7:00 pm EST

BUFFALO, New York (Ticker) -- The Ottawa Senators are not enjoying their longest road trip of the season.

The Senators hope to change their fortunes when they visit the Buffalo Sabres on Tuesday in a battle of Northeast Division rivals.

On an eight-game swing, Ottawa has gone 1-4-1 over the first six stops. The Senators will face the Eastern Conference-leading Boston Bruins on Thursday to conclude the trip.

Ottawa squandered three separate leads Sunday, suffering a 4-3 overtime setback to the New Jersey Devils for its 10th loss in 13 games. The Senators are 1-11-3 over their previous 15 road contests.

The Sabres are seeking their third straight win after topping the Bruins, 4-2, on Saturday. Matt Ellis, who had just four career goals entering the contest, scored twice and added an assist in that one.

Thomas Vanek and Paul Gaustad also scored and Ryan Miller made 29 saves Saturday for Buffalo, which is 8-4-2 over its last 14 games.
