Stutzle's Late Tally Lifts Senators Over Sharks 3-2 in San Jose

Ottawa capitalized on defensive lapses to extend a strong run on the first leg of a seven-game trip.

Overview

  • Tim Stutzle sealed the win with 6:38 remaining, jamming in a loose puck after a stretch-pass-fueled 2-on-0 left the puck sitting on the goal line.
  • Questionable San Jose line changes and breakdowns preceded both Ottawa’s tying strike and the go-ahead sequence, according to local accounts.
  • Linus Ullmark stopped 17 shots, including a point-blank save with 10.6 seconds left, while Alex Nedeljkovic made 24 saves for the Sharks.
  • Dylan Cozens and ex-Shark Fabian Zetterlund scored for Ottawa, matching San Jose goals from John Klingberg and Barclay Goodrow.
  • The Senators improved to 11-6-4 with only one loss in their past nine games, as Thomas Chabot’s condition is in question after he appeared to be hurt late.
