Senators, Devils Set for October 12 NHL Game
The Ottawa Senators have opened the season 4-1-0, grinding out close wins while relying on strong play from Tim Stützle and Drake Batherson. Coach Travis Green has emphasized simpler offensive-zone entries, while defensive coverage and the workload on the top pairing remain areas to improve. André Burakovsky is joining the top line after returning from injury, giving Ottawa another scoring option as William Eklund is expected to miss an extended stretch. Ottawa’s next listed matchup is against the New Jersey Devils, whose 2-2-0 start contrasts with the Senators’ strong early record; Linus Ullmark has been a major strength for Ottawa, posting a 1.34 goals-against average and .942 save percentage. Before that, the Senators hosted Nashville with fan festivities and a food drive at Canadian Tire Centre.
