No. 1 in the 30-second version

Senators beat the Mammoth 4-2 for their second straight win, with Fabian Zetterlund opening the scoring.

According to the Silver Seven fan blog, the game was played before a sold-out crowd at the CTC, with a pregame ceremony honoring the 1997, 2007 and 2017 Senators teams. Zetterlund's power-play goal was his second of the season. The blog said Ottawa had several defensive breakdowns that its goaltender covered for, and called it a good but not perfect win.

Nate Schmidt was ruled out before the game with an upper-body injury. Coach André Tourigny said the back end was banged up and that the mistakes were within the team's control.
