The Canadiens and Senators entered their final game before the start of the regular season needing answers and essentially got none.

The Canadiens could only muster six shots on goal in those 20 minutes and generated very little else. The highlight of the period for them was probably the fact that Xhekaj kept his temper in check when Pinto slashed Mailloux.

The Ottawa Senators capped their preseason off with another win against the Montreal Canadiens, as they emerged victorious by a score of 4-2 on Saturday night.

The Montreal Canadiens will wrap up their pre-season schedule on Saturday night when they visit Ottawa to take on the Senators.
