After bouncing back with a 4-3 shootout win on Thursday night against the Seattle Kraken, the Ottawa Senators then suffered a brutal 5-4 loss to the New York Islanders to begin their four-game home stand. It was then time to host the two-time defending Western Conference champion Edmonton Oilers.
Heading into Tuesday, the Senators were hoping to begin new luck against the Oilers after being swept in the two-game season series last season, but it was the same results as last season.
The Oilers defeated the Senators 3-2 in overtime at Canadian Tire Centre.
