The Ottawa Senators are showing signs of consistency with a recent 3-1 victory over the Nashville Predators, bringing their record to 12-12-2. This win puts them just two points behind the Tampa Bay Lightning for a wild-card playoff spot.

Head coach Travis Green noted the team's improved performance, while players like Jacob Bernard-Docker and Tim Stutzle highlighted the momentum building after a shaky start to the season. In contrast, the Predators are struggling, now on a seven-game losing streak.
