The Red Wings traveled to Ottawa for their first matchup against the Senators and Alex DeBrincat’s first game back after being traded this last offseason.
After withstanding a quick start by the Senators that included a goal from Jake Sandesron with just under three minutes left in the first period, the Wings got on the board thanks to a powerplay goal from Shayne Gostisbehere off a solid pass from captain Dylan Larkin. Ville Husso started off solid in the net yet again, stopping 13 of the 14 first-period shots he faced.
