Senators (25-35-9) @ Sabres (34-27-8)
Buffalo 6 - Ottawa 4
In there return from a seven-game road-trip,  Buffalo ousted Ottawa 6 - 4 with a pair of goals by Tyler Ennis.  The two teams went goal-for-goal in the 1st 20 minutes, but Buffalo ran away with the game in the 2nd Period.  Ottawa tried to come back, but Buffalo scored twice for Ottawa's only 2nd Period goal. The Senators late effort with a goal in the last minute of regulation wasn't enough to surpass the Sabres.
