Ottawa Senators Notes:

Ottawa was 3-0-0 when scoring first, but couldn’t hold the lead against the high-scoring Vegas Golden Knights in a 6-4 loss. Linus Ullmark had been good against Vegas in his career allowing only three goals in two games against the Golden Knights. Ullmark’s five goals allowed were the most he’s given up since the Islanders scored five against him last year on March 2.

Colorado Avalanche Notes:

Colorado has won 4 games in a row after losing 4 straight to start the season. The Avalanche have outscored opponents 16-7 during that span. Colorado’s early season struggles on the power play appear to be gone as the Avalanche have power-play goals in 5 consecutive games.
