These Senators Stay Untouched as Government Shutdown Throws Others Into Chaos—Find Out Who and Why

The Senators had a nice season last year, reaching the playoffs with a solid 45-30-7 record and 97 points overall. In the first three games of the season, Ottawa has only gone 1-2-0. They haven’t had an easy schedule. They opened the season with a win over the Lightning on the road, then dropped a game to the Panthers, and lost after hosting the Predators. The biggest issue is that the team is stopping no one from finding the back of the net. They have allowed at least four goals in each of the first three games. They’ve also struggled to score outside of the first game. In the opener, they got five goals, and have only scored three in the two games since. It doesn’t help that Brady Tkachuk is also going to miss a month. This is not the start the team was looking for. Tonight, the Senators send Leevi Merilainen to the crease in hopes of stopping the Sabres. In limited opportunities last season, he was very successful. He was 8-3-1 with a 1.99 goals against per game average and three shutouts. He also had a .925 save percentage.
