Blown defensive coverage costs Senators dearly in loss to Sharks
Ottawa's power play let the team down, allowing two shorthanded goals — one of them was an empty netter — and converting on zero opportunities.
San Jose Sharks overcame a 7-4 deficit to defeat Ottawa Senators 6-2 on Thursday, marking their maiden regulation win of the season. Colin Graf led the scoring with a goal and an assist, while Yaroslav Askarov made 39 saves. Nolan Allan, Tyler Toffoli, Jacob Trouba, Zack Ostapchuk, and Ivar Stenberg added six more goals. Ottawa's Tim Stutzle and Jordan Spence also netted. Samuel Ersson, Ottawa's goaltender, was placed on injured reserve after suffering a lower-body injury earlier in the night.
