  • When do you hit the panic button as a Senators fan? Uh, maybe, now? Having lost five of their six previous games, the Senators headed out west to face low-level competition in San Jose and Anaheim, and play L.A. on the second night of a back-to-back.

The Ottawa Senators' playoff hopes have been significantly challenged following a tough November, as detailed in an article by Sportsnet. The team has struggled with a record of 5-7-0 during this period, which has left them trailing in the race for a playoff spot in the Eastern Conference. Key issues highlighted include inconsistent goaltending, with both Anton Forsberg and Cam Talbot facing difficulties, and a lack of offensive production from their top players. Additionally, the Senators have been plagued by injuries and have had trouble maintaining consistent lineups. Despite some bright spots, like the performance of rookie Shane Pinto, the overall team performance has not met expectations, putting pressure on both the players and management to turn things around as the season progresses.
