OTTAWA, Ontario (AP) 鈥� Anton Forsberg stopped 22 shots and recorded a shutout against the Seattle Kraken for the second year in a row, lifting the Ottawa Senators to a 3-0 win on Saturday night.
Brady Tkachuk scored in the second period, his team-leading seventh of the season.
Adam Gaudette opening the scoring in the first period with a backhanded chip-in after a coach鈥檚 challenge overturned an initial no-goal ruling. Gaudette has scored six goals in his last five games.
Tim Stutzle added an empty netter with just over two minutes remaining.
