Zetterlund's 10th goal of the season late in the 3rd period gives Senators a 4-3 win over Capitals

Fabian Zetterlund scored his 10th goal late in the third period to end Ottawa's three-game losing streak, with Leevi Merilainen making 26 saves, officials said.

  • On Thursday, Fabian Zetterlund's 10th goal late in the third gave the Ottawa Senators a 4-3 win in Ottawa less than two minutes after Aliaksei Protas tied it.
  • After falling behind 2-0 on goals from Tom Wilson and Dylan Strome, Ottawa rallied with scores from David Perron, Ridly Greig and Nick Jensen to take the lead in the third.
  • Notably, Jake Sanderson recorded his 2nd assist and the game featured physical moments including Batherson dropping the gloves with Sourdif.
  • Leevi Merilainen made 26 saves and helped Ottawa snap a three-game skid, and the Senators host the Winnipeg Jets on Saturday while Washington hosts the Chicago Blackhawks on Saturday.
  • Playing the back half of a back-to-back, Washington Capitals faced hard collisions, including Thomas Chabot taken down by Justin Sourdif and Aliaksei Protas sent awkwardly into the boards after clashing with Artem Zub.
