Balanced scoring attack leads Sharks to 6-2 victory over Senators

On Thursday, the San Jose Sharks defeated the Ottawa Senators 6-2 in Ottawa, securing their first regulation win of the season. Yaroslav Askarov stopped 39 shots while Colin Graf contributed a goal and an assist in the decisive road victory.
Following an emotional 5-1 win over the Florida Panthers just 24 hours earlier, the Senators struggled to replicate that intensity against San Jose. Ottawa lacked finishing power against Askarov while the Sharks capitalized on their opportunities.
Tyler Toffoli broke a 1-1 tie in the second period, followed by goals from Jacob Trouba, Zack Ostapchuk, and Ivar Stenberg. Samuel Ersson made 23 saves for Ottawa but could not overcome the offensive pressure.
Despite outshooting the Sharks 18-11 through 40 minutes, the Senators saw their offense limited to goals from Tim Stutzle and Jordan Spence. Ottawa placed goaltender Linus Ullmark on injured reserve Thursday after a lower-body injury.
Ottawa hosts the New York Rangers on Saturday, attempting to rebound from the loss. The Sharks travel to Boston to face the Bruins on the same day, seeking to build momentum after their successful road performance.
