Ottawa Senators prospect roundup: December 8th, 2010

AHL


Division: 5th
Conference: 12th
Record: 10-12-2-1
Goals for: 72
Goals against: 75Game 24: Penguins double up on Senators

The Binghamton Senators got off to a very slow start tonight. The Wilkes-Barre/Scranton Penguins got on the board with two goals in the first, the second being shorthanded, while Binghamton was able to only get three shots on goal in the first 20. The two teams returned in the second, where it took seven minutes for one team to get a shot on net (which was Wilkes-Barre/Scranton shot). But 13 minutes into the second, the AHL rookie of the month, Bobby Butler scored Binghamton's first goal to cut the lead to one. And with 27 seconds left in the second, Kaspars Daugavins tied the game. The third however, would be all Wilkes-Barre/Scranton. Binghamton again, was only able to get three shots on goal, and Chris Collins would score both goals in the third, the last being an empty netter.

BSens Hero: Barry Brust
It's getting old, but Brust really kept the game as close as it was. Saving 25 shots of 28, Brust only allowed three goals, and assisted Kaspars Daugavins in his game tying goal. He now has two more points than Jason Bailey.

BSens Killer: Wilkes-Barre/Scranton defense
Wilkes-Barre/Scranton was able to keep Binghamton, the AHL's 11th ranked offense, to only 14 shots, and held Binghamton to three shots in two periods.

Game 25: Bears shutout Senators

Another Robin Lehner start against Hershey, another ugly game. Hershey had this game from the first period until the final buzzer in the third. Hershey got on the board early with a goal that was accidentally knocked in by Tim Spencer, who was trying to help out Lehner early in the first. Hershey would later score again in the first with a goal from Francois Bouchard. The Senators would try to make a comeback in the second, but Jay Beagle's goal would be the only goal in the second. Binghamton would have 12 shots in second, but like Friday, hit single digit shots on goal in both the first and third (7 shots in both periods).

BSens Killer: Braden Holtby
Holtby had a shutout and didn't have to work hard to get it. He had 26 saves, and he now has a 1.86 GAA and a .934 save percentage.

BSens Killer: Powerplay
Binghamton's powerplay went 0 for 5, and is ranked in the lower 20s in the AHL. Binghamton has tried to shake up the powerplay by making it a five forward powerplay squad (Zack Smith, Corey Locke, Cody Bass with Bobby Butler and Mike Hoffman on defense), but it hasn't yet worked.

Elmira would have the lead thanks to Yannick Tifu's goal, but the game would tied for the final time with 3.4 seconds left in the game, when Trent Daavettila knocked in the lose puck to send the game into overtime.
