Ottawa Senators Dominate St. Louis Blues 8-1, Highlighted by Tkachuk, Stützle, and Gaudette's Dual Goals

Tuesday, October 29th, 2024

In Ottawa, Brady Tkachuk, Tim Stützle, and Adam Gaudette each scored twice, leading the Senators to an 8-1 victory over the Blues.

Despite a delay caused by a power outage, Ottawa's offense surged once the game began. Josh Norris kicked off the scoring less than a minute into the game, with Noah Gregor and Stützle contributing soon after and breaking his streak without goals.

Linus Ullmark, the Ottawa goalie, claimed the win with 26 saves. Following Tkachuk's two power-play goals in the second period, the Blues swapped their starting goalie. Jordan Binnington, who stepped in, allowed three goals in relief.

Dylan Holloway scored the only goal for the Blues in the third period. This victory represents Ottawa's second eight-goal game in the span of 15 days.

For the Blues, this game adds to a concerning streak where they have allowed 13 goals over two games, including a recent defeat by Montreal.

The Senators displayed exceptional offensive skills, highlighted by Stützle's four points and Giroux's ongoing point streak, which now spans seven games.

A pivotal moment occurred when Norris scored with a backhand just 1 minute and 4 seconds into the game, assisted by Giroux, who continued his point streak for the seventh game in a row.

A notable statistic from the game is that Zack Ostapchuk earned his first NHL point with an assist on Gregor's goal.

Looking ahead, the Blues will travel to Philadelphia on Thursday, while the Senators are set to play against the Rangers in New York on Friday.
