Stützle's Three-Point Night Fuels Senators' Road Win
Two goals (including a short-handed strike) and a helper push Ottawa past Boston in a 4-1 victory
Tim Stützle drove Ottawa's attack from the middle, finishing with 2 goals and 1 assist in the Senators' 4-1 road victory. He logged 18:56 of ice time — fifth among team skaters and first among forwards — and was on the ice for both of his even-strength contributions (one goal, one assist) and a short-handed goal that rounded out his night. Stützle took 3 shots on goal, recorded 1 hit, 1 blocked shot, and had 1 giveaway over 29 shifts.
This performance accounted for most of his team's scoring in Boston and left him at 4 points in 2 games on the early season ledger; his season on-ice numbers show reasonable chance involvement (an individual expected-goals mark of 0.55) through a limited sample. Plainly put: Stützle was the offensive catalyst in a road win that helped Ottawa start 2-0-0.
