Opening weekend turned out to be better than anticipated for Ottawa Senators fans
The team began the 2020-21 season with a Friday-Saturday doubleheader against the Toronto Maple Leafs, posting an impressive 5-3 win on opening night, before posing a valiant effort in a 3-2 loss in the ladder. There were many highlights for fans such as the play of Thomas Chabot, Brady Tkachuk and Matt Murray, as well as the first NHL goal for Tim Stützle.
While the team has looked better on-ice than even the most pessimistic of fans could’ve predicted, there are still some obvious tweaks that the coaching staff can make to even further improve the young team’s play just a couple of games in. Here are three that the Senators should explore before hosting the Winnipeg Jets on Tuesday night.
