In what could mostly be described as a complete win, the Ottawa Senators shut out the Vancouver Canucks 3-0. The big story of the game was the Sens’ powerplay, which went 2/4, providing the only non-empty-net goals of the game. The other big story was Matt Murray, who posted a 31-save shutout, his fourth quality start in a row since returning from injury.
After what felt like ages, but was actually just two nights off, the Sens returned to action against the Canucks, who had improbably won two games over the Maple Leafs since returning from their lengthy Covid postponement.
