Story summary

On Monday night, Tim Stutzle scored two goals and added an assist as the Ottawa Senators defeated the Boston Bruins by a score of 4-1. This win improved Ottawa's record to 2-0 for the season. Goalies Linus Ullmark and Samuel Ersson combined to block 18 out of 19 shots faced, with Ullmark stopping all 15 he handled before leaving the game due to a collision. Backup Ersson entered in the third period and allowed only one goal to Boston's James Hagens, preserving Ottawa’s victory despite being down a netminder for much of the final frame. The Bruins failed to capitalize on their four power-play opportunities while being outshot 24-19 overall. Stutzle's achievement also moved him into sixth place in Ottawa Senators franchise history for points with 413.
