Key moment The Senators had a pair of messy errors leading to the first two goals. First, Tim Stutzle had an unforced turnover, leading to the pening goal. Less than a minute later, the Jets had an odd-man rush and Ullmark couldn’t hold on to a puck he thought he had.

Key stat Hellebuyck is 21-2-2 in his last 25 starts.

Up next The Jets are at Nashville on Thursday night to complete a two-game trip. The Senators host San Jose on Saturday night.
