Ottawa Senators Key Notes
- Craig Anderson's solid game gave Ottawa a chance as he faced 39 shots allowing just 1 goal in regulation to lose in a shoot out.
- Milan Michalek was the lone goal scorer for Ottawa
- Erik Karlsson went down during the second period when hitting the boards hard | Out 3 Weeks with a strained back muscle
- Assists went to Karlsson & Stone
- Mark Borowiecki spent 17 mins of the game in the box. (1 fight, 1 boarding and a 10 min misconduct penalty).
Overall:
- Borowiecki isn't the type of player I want on this team. He will be placed on the trading block.
- The teams preseason record sits at 0-3-2. Not a record to be proud of
