After a relatively easy first two months in the schedule, Ottawa faces a horrendous December. It's great that they were able to pick up points early on in the year.
When the 2015-16 NHL schedule came out, everybody knew...December was going to be awfully hard for the Ottawa Senators. The first two months have been relatively easy for the Senators, and it partially shows in their record of 12-6-5. However, "Deathcember" will be a real test for Ottawa. They haven't been playing that great as they are giving up the most shots against per game in the league, but there are positives.
