  "account": "Ottawa Senators secured a 2-1 victory over the Philadelphia Flyers on Thursday, with Carter Yakemchuk scoring the game-winning goal on a power-play. Yakemchuk made his NHL debut in the playoffs last spring. Philadelphia's Matvei Michkov was the only Flyer to score, putting the Flyers down early. The Senators had four power-play chances in the first period but only managed five shots on goal. The Flyers' Linus Ullmark made 29 saves. Joseph Woll made 24 saves for Philadelphia. Ottawa's Nick Cousins scored first at even strength, while William Eklund left the game in the first period after an injury. The Senators are now 2-for-18 on the season with the man advantage. Philadelphia's Michael Bunting made his debut after signing with the team Tuesday, and Ottawa's Hoyt Stanley made his NHL debut. The Senators will host the Nashville Predators on Saturday, while the Flyers will travel to Boston to face the Bruins.",
