The Ottawa Senators' recent slump has the team now down to 12th place in the Eastern Conference and, with several teams to leapfrog over, a playoff appearance appearing less and less likely. The Senators were in Pittsburgh on Monday night and road into town on a five-game losing streak. Ottawa also carried a 10-game losing streak at Pittsburgh heading into the matchup with the Penguins. Ottawa was able to end the losing streak overall and in Pittsburgh with a 2-1 win on Monday night. Drake Batherson pumped in his 21st goal of the season on the power play with less than three minutes to go for the win.
