ANAHEIM, Calif. — Given the chance to build momentum coming off their first regulation win of the season, the Ducks squandered the opportunity and fell flat against the Ottawa Senators.
The Senators scored three power-play goals in a 5-1 victory over the Ducks on Friday afternoon at Honda Center, in a meeting between the teams with the worst records in the NHL. They play each other again next month in Ottawa and next seem destined to run into each other in the 2023 NHL draft lottery.
Forwards Brady Tkachuk, Derick Brassard, Tim Stutzle and Mathieu Joseph and defenseman Artem Zub scored for the Senators, who had lost three straight coming into Friday’s game.
