"The Rangers had just nine shots on goal, matching a franchise worst set on Dec. 11, 1955, in a defeat at Detroit. They lost for a 25th time in 34 home games this season."
"Ottawa won its third in a row, improving to 14-3-2 since Jan. 25 and moving two points back of the second and final wild-card spot in the Eastern Conference with 12 games to play."
"The latest victory came at a cost of two more injuries to an already depleted defense. Thomas Chabot took a stick to the right arm from J.T. Miller in the final seconds of the first period."
"Mika Zibanejad skated in his 1,000th regular-season game, his 719th with the Rangers after playing his first 281 with Ottawa. Zibanejad was honored in a pregame ceremony."
Shane Pinto scored on the power play, and Warren Foegele added another goal as the Ottawa Senators defeated the Rangers 2-1. The Rangers struggled with only nine shots on goal, tying a franchise low. Ottawa's victory marked their third consecutive win, bringing them closer to a playoff spot. However, the game resulted in injuries to defensemen Thomas Chabot and Lassi Thomson, leaving the Senators with only four defensemen. Igor Shesterkin's performance in goal helped keep the score manageable for the Rangers, who faced their 25th home loss this season.
