OTTAWA – Linus Ullmark made 23 saves for his second shutout of the season as the Ottawa Senators blanked the Anaheim Ducks 2-0 on Saturday afternoon.

Michael Amadio and Thomas Chabot scored for Ottawa (33-23-9), with Shane Pinto dishing out two assists.

The lone blemish on the day was the Senators’ power play going 0-for-4.

Ville Husso stopped 27 shots for Anaheim (36-27-3).

Nick Cousins won a battle along the boards at centre which sprung Pinto down the ice. Pinto fed Amadio on a 2-on-1 and he made no mistake beating Husso shortside 3:54 into the second period.

At the 9:21 mark of the frame, the Senators capitalized on a turnover. Pinto intercepted a pass and found Chabot in the high slot for his seventh of the season and second career short-handed goal.

Anaheim challenged for goaltender interference but was unsuccessful.

Warren Foegele had a couple chances from in close in the opening period but just couldn’t settle a bouncing puck. 

Husso then stopped Amadio on a short-handed 2-on-1. 

Amadio later drew a penalty but Husso made a big glove save on Tim Stutzle on the Senators’ power play.

Takeaways 

Senators: Ottawa played a solid game and supported Ullmark well reducing second chances.

Ducks: The Ducks were 0-for-3 on the power play and gave up far too many short-handed chances.

Key Moment

With Anaheim pressing in the final minutes of the game and the net empty, Amadio made two big plays to clear the puck.

Up next

Senators: Host the San Jose Sharks on Sunday.

Ducks: Head to Montreal to take on the Canadiens on Sunday.
