'Playoff Hockey Starts Now:' Ottawa Senators End Five-Game Skid With 5-3 Victory Over San Jose Sharks
Briefly

The Ottawa Senators broke their five-game losing streak by defeating the San Jose Sharks 5-3 at the Canadian Tire Centre. Trailing 2-1 after two periods, they turned their fortunes around in the third with four unanswered goals. Tim Stützle's goal and assist, alongside Brady Tkachuk's equalizer on the power play, sparked the comeback. David Perron scored the eventual game-winner, and Michael Amadio sealed the victory with an empty-net goal. Key returns and 34 saves from Linus Ullmark were instrumental in the win.
"We will take the two points tonight. We got better and better as we went here in the game. I think there was a point in the second period we had 3 or 4 shifts in a row where we kind of out chanced them, kept the momentum going. That's something that we have to keep on doing more and more and understand the value of these types of shifts."
"Ottawa finally caught some breaks in the final frame. After trailing 2-1, the Senators capitalized on a crucial five-on-three power play to tie the game, setting the stage for the comeback victory over the Sharks."
