MONTREAL — The Ottawa Senators' special teams turned in a superb performance in helping the visitors knock off the Montreal Canadiens 4-3 in NHL pre-season action on Tuesday evening.
Evans made the most of his opportunity to open the scoring with seven minutes left in the period. After picking up a loose puck at the top of the right-side faceoff circle, he unleashed a powerful snapshot into the top corner, leaving a screened Linus Ullmark with no chance to stop it. At the midway point of the game, Ottawa got a great opportunity to get back in the game after Arber Xhekaj was assessed a five-minute major and a game misconduct — his second in as many games — after elbowing Tim Stüzle in the head.
Ottawa’s power play continued its hot streak, adding another just two minutes into the third period. Yakemchuk’s well-placed one-timer beat Cayden Primeau to make it four unanswered Senators goals.
