The Senators enter tonight’s game coming off a dominant 5-0 road win over the Pittsburgh Penguins yesterday. The win, the team’s 1,100th in franchise history, saw Shane Pinto score twice while Tyler Kleven, Drake Batherson, and Tim Stützle all recorded goals of their own. Goaltender Leevi Meriläinen recorded his first career NHL shutout, stopping all 30 shots he faced. The shutout also marked the Senators’ sixth of the season, an NHL-best.
The Senators last played the Stars on the road on January 2, their first game of 2025. The game ended in a 4-2 loss, with Brady Tkachuk and Ridly Greig scoring for the Senators. Tonight’s game will be an opportunity for redemption and to tie the two-game season series 1-1.
Like Ottawa, the Stars also played yesterday when they took on the Montreal Canadiens. It was a close game that saw the Stars come away with a 2-1 victory in the shootout.
Prior to tonight’s game, Senators’ President of Hockey Operations and General Manager Steve Staios will hold his mid-season availability at 3:30 p.m. ET. To tune in live, visit the Senators’ website.
