Shane Pinto, Stephen Halliday and Tyler Kleven scored for the Senators (5-1-0), who reached the five-win mark in six or fewer games for the third time in franchise history after previously doing so in 2007-08 (5-0-0) and 2005-06 (5-0-0). Linus Ullmark made 29 saves.<\/p>\n
Ullmark (5-0-0) has allowed just six goals this season.<\/p>\n
Arseny Gritsyuk scored the lone goal, and Nico Daws made 16 saves for the Devils (2-3-0), who won 4-1 against the Vancouver Canucks on Saturday.<\/p>\n
Pinto gave the Senators a 1-0 lead nine seconds into the second period on a wrist shot from the slot, converting Michael Amadio’s centering pass from the left face-off circle.<\/p>\n
Halliday pushed it to 2-0 with a power-play goal at 8:40 of the second. Devils defenseman Brett Pesce hit an edge and fell, opening a lane for Stutzle to find an uncovered Halliday between the circles.<\/p>\n
Stutzle made it 3-0 when he deflected a shot from the slot past Daws at 11:10 of the third period. Thomas Chabot took the initial shot from the point.<\/p>\n
The Devils appeared to pull within 3-1 at 11:58 of the third when Jesper Boqvist scored, but the Senators successfully challenged the play for goalie interference.<\/p>\n
Gritsyuk did cut the deficit to 3-1 at 14:59 on a wrist shot between the circles.<\/p>\n
Kleven scored an empty-net goal at 17:53 for the 4-1 final.<\/p>\n
New Jersey denied Ottawa on a five-minute major penalty against Anthony Mantha for boarding defenseman Nikolas Matinpalo at 10:01 of the first.<\/p>\n
Matinpalo sustained an upper-body injury on the play and didn’t return, limiting the Senators to five defensemen.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Shane Pinto, Stephen Halliday and Tyler Kleven scored for the Senators (5-1-0), who reached the five-win mark in…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":931105,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[194295],"tags":[49,48,20739],"class_list":["post-931104","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-ottawa","tag-ca","tag-canada","tag-ottawa"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/931104","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=931104"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/931104\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/931105"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=931104"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=931104"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=931104"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
