The New York Rangers needed a win tonight to lock up the President's Trophy. Igor Shesterkin made 26 saves in the win, while Joonas Korpisalo had 30 in the loss. The first period was fairly sloppy for the Sens. On the one hand, Joonas Korpisalo kept them in it, but on the other hand, his own bobbles led to him having to make big saves.
Brady Tkachuk had two goals and an assist, Drake Batherson scored the only goal in the shootout and the Ottawa Senators beat the Montreal Canadiens 5-4 on Saturday night. Shane Pinto and Thomas Chabot also scored for Ottawa, which swept the season series against the Canadiens 3-0 and extended its winning streak against Montreal to nine games. Joonas Korpisalo made 21 saves for Ottawa.
Many armchair general managers in Bytown think the Ottawa Senators need to get rid of their twine minding duo of Joonas Korpisalo and Anton Forsberg this summer and get better goalies. As bad as things may be in Ottawa, at least they're not as hopeless as they are in the Queen City. Okay, just for those diehard fans who think Ottawa's goaltending isn't all that bad, you don't have to take my word for it.
