Senators Fail to Score for 1st Time All Season in Elimination Game

The Ottawa Senators lost Sunday's series-ending Game 6 to the Montreal Canadiens by a score of 2-0, marking the first time Ottawa has been shut out in the past 130 games, per Sportsnet Stats.

Despite struggling last season and throughout the better part of 2014-15, the Senators previously had not suffered a shutout since losing 5-0 to the Boston Bruins on Dec. 27, 2013.

Of course, while that stretch does include Ottawa's torrid final two months of the 2014-15 regular season, it also includes the team's lousy first four months of the campaign as well as the final three-and-a-half months of a 2013-14 season that ended with a middling 37-31-14 record and no playoff appearance.
