The Ottawa Senators haven’t lost six regulation games in a row since 1996. Yet, even with Erik Karlsson, Thomas Chabot, Mike Hoffman, Derick Brassard and Ryan Dzingel in the lineup, the Sens somehow managed to lose their sixth regulation game in a row, falling 2-1 to the Carolina Hurricanes.
To be honest, the Sens didn’t play all that awful. The offence had trouble finishing, although that wasn’t for a lack of quality chances. The defence still has a long ways to go, although my amount of facepalms from painful positioning were less than usual.
