Brady Tkachuk posted a goal and an assist as the Senators earned a win over the Rangers.
Ottawa benefitted from superior play on special teams, with two power-play goals a short-handed tally.
While skating down a man 1:15 after the first goal, the Senators doubled their advantage when Smith redirected a puck past Lundqvist. Smith’s ninth of the season was set up when he and Magnus Paajarvi executed a give-and-go around Rangers defenceman Kevin Shattenkirk., who returned after missing one game with an upper-body injury, also failed to pick up Smith driving to the net.
The Rangers converted a short-handed chance of their own when Anderson performed a nifty backhand, forehand deke to beat Nilsson at 4:52 of the second period. Vladislav Namestnikov and Brendan Smith assisted on the play.
