Mike Condon put on his best Craig Anderson impression by stopping all 27 shots that came his way in his season debut with the Senators. No, it’s not a 47-save shutout in your debut against your team’s hated rivals, but it’s a result that’s bound to put a couple extra bounces in GM Pierre Dorion’s steps. For a team that’s used four goaltenders in their first ten games, only allowing one goal against in their last three must be pretty sweet.
Mike Hoffman scored the lone goal of the game by patiently outwaiting a sprawling Jakob Markstrom after Ottawa-native Erik Gudbranson turned the puck over in Vancouver’s defensive zone.
