First period
They didn’t have a strong game on Saturday, and now the duo of Jayden Struble and Arber Xhekaj allows an early goal in trois-Rivières. Struble’s pass didn’t hit it’s target, Xhekaj got caught on the wrong side of his man, and William Eklund tapped the puck in from the top of the crease.
A pass to the point is picked off by the Senators, and Noah Dobson has to wrap up his man to prevent a breakaway. Ottawa gets a chance to go up two.
Some solid penalty-killing keep...

While there's been a ton of speculation about goaltender Connor Hellebuyck's future recently, it turns out early reports of him wanting out of Canada may not be 100% true. According to Toronto Sun's Steve Simmons, Hellebuyck is open to playing for the Montreal Canadiens.
