Braeden Bowman assisted Tomas Hertl in scoring the equalizer, with added support from Trevor Connelly, who recorded his eighth point of the season. The rest of the game remained scoreless, coming to a close with an overtime goal from Adam Fantilli to secure the two points for the Blue Jackets.

Ottawa was first to get on the board with two goals, but Brett Howden cut that lead in half. The Senators came out with another goal before Jack Eichel and Mark Stone evened the score again, sending the teams through a scoreless overtime into a shootout, where Shane Pinto secured the game-winner. In matchup number two on Jan. 25, Vegas fell 7-1, with Rasmus Andersson scoring his first goal as a Golden Knight.

KEYS TO THE GAME
Back To The Fortress: Captain Mark Stone said the team’s recent road trip was a bit of a weird one, but now that the team is back for a homestand, it gives them the opportunity to regroup.
Defend, Defend Again: Coming off the 2-1 OT loss in Columbus, one thing that has shown its strength has been the team’s defense. Maintaining long stretches of strong defense is the foundation of a successful game.
