Coming off a 4\u002D3 overtime loss to the Dallas Stars on Thursday, the Senators are trying to find their way back into the playoff picture.
While they’ve captured nine of 10 points with a 4-0-1 record in their past five road games, the Senators need to find a way to bring some of that magic home with them. The club has won just two of its past eight games in Ottawa and that trend has to change.Article content
The Senators have seven games remaining before the NHL’s holiday break starts Dec. 24th. The club is playing better defensively and with a lot more consistency than it did earlier in the season, which is why the Senators have had recent success.Article content “We’re trying to get back into it so we have to come to the rink ready to play every day and right from the puck drop.”
It helped that the line of Shane Pinto, Drake Batherson and DeBrincat combined for five points in this victory. Batherson scored what turned out to be the winner to give the club a two-goal lead with 10:45 remaining in the third period. The Senators haven’t had many breaks go their way this season, but they got one on DeBrincat’s seventh of the season. Attempting to throw the puck across to Batherson, Nashville’s Dante Fabbro redirected through Saros’ five-hole to give the Senators a 2-1 lead in the third.
