Games 11 to 15
Game 11 at home vs the Caps
An explosion of goals tonight vs the Caps and we win 7-1. Colin White had 2 (3), Stutzle (4), Batherson (3), Brannstrom (3), Tyson Barrie (2) and Viktor Mete with his first were the other scorers. Gustavsson got his 7th win with 35 saves. Unfortunately, Erik Brannstrom was hit late in the game and will miss significant time going forward.
After the game, Brannstrom was placed on IR and Maatta was put into the line up. Sokolov was taken out of the line up too and Chris Tierney was brought back in.
Game 12 vs the Columbus Blue Jackets
Columbus came off a big loss vs the Knights and were amped up to play, skating to a 4-3 win over the Senators. Maatta scored his first goal of the season to start it all off and Tyson Barrie scored his 3rd minutes later. however, we couldn't hold the lead and were down 4 to 2 when Josh Norris scored his 2nd late to make it close. Sogaard had a decent game making 33 saves but we couldn't pull out the win.
Game 13 at the New York Islanders
Great effort by the club tonight and we skated away with a 3-0 win. Gustavsson again with the solid game making 24 saves in the shutout, his 2nd of the season. Connor Brown scored his 4th of the season, Morgan Geekie notched his 5th and Riley Smith, the big Free Agent signing finally gets his 1st.
Game 14 at Philadelphia
Back to back shutouts by Gustavsson who is having an amazing start to the season. Big 2-0 win over the Flyers, Tierney with his 3rd and Artem Zub picked up his 2nd. During the game, Brady Tkachuk was injured. Shouldn't be too long but will miss a couple of games.
Game 15 in Toroto. A huge test!
Big game vs the Leafs and we dropped a 2-1 game. Formenton was the only Sen that managed to beat Mrazek. We hung with a top team which was good but need to find a way to beat those teams in those 1 goal games.
