The Ottawa Senators faced their third straight loss, falling 5-2 to the Edmonton Oilers, led by Connor McDavid's impressive performance. Captain Brady Tkachuk expressed frustration, labeling the team's play as 'not good enough' and 'immature.'
Head coach Travis Green echoed these sentiments, noting the team's struggle to maintain resilience, particularly when trailing. Despite a goal from Tim Stutzle, the Senators couldn't keep pace with the Oilers, who capitalized on mistakes and showcased their depth with contributions from Leon Draisaitl and Ryan Nugent-Hopkins.
