In three games this month, the Ottawa Senators have scored 13 goals. They scored 26 in 14 games during the month of December.
In a game that was topsy-turvy — sort-of like the Sens season thus far — Ottawa managed to score three third-period goals to close out the NHL’s best team, on the second-half of a back-to-back. It’s a far cry from last week’s back-to-back, where, after defeating the Columbus Blue Jackets in a similar comeback fashion as last night’s victory over the Sharks, the Sens responded with a goose egg against the Boston Bruins.
