Senators 'Attitude Adjustment' Paying Off in Successful Start to Season
Shane Pinto scored the shootout winner as Ottawa overcame a 2-1 deficit and earned its best start since the 2014-15 season.
On Saturday, the Ottawa Senators defeated the Nashville Predators 3-2 in a shootout, securing a 4-1 start to the season, their best record since 2014-15.
Forward Shane Pinto attributed the team's turnaround to a mindset shift, admitting the group has 'Just a different mojo' compared to last year's squad.
Tim Stutzle scored his fourth goal of the season; he and Thomas Chabot announced a $1,872 donation to CHEO, the children's hospital in Ottawa, for every team win.
Despite missing defencemen Jake Sanderson, Artem Zub, and William Eklund, head coach Travis Green praised the collective effort, saying, 'I think they believe they can win any night.'
The Senators face three games in four days this week starting Monday with a visit to New Jersey, followed by home games against the St. Louis Blues Tuesday and the New York Islanders Thursday.
