• Thomas Chabot leads all NHL defensemen with 35 points after recording a goal and an assist in Friday’s victory, which followed a stretch during which he was kept off the scoresheet in four of five games. Ryan Dzingel registered a pair of assists Friday, giving him seven points in his last eight contests, while Tierney tallied twice in the win after enduring a 10-game goal-scoring drought. Rookie Brady Tkachuk has gone eight games without a point after posting 16 in the first 14 contests of his NHL career.

• Defenseman Jeff Petry is on one of the best runs of his career as he has collected four goals and a pair of assists during a four-game point streak and is tied for third on the team in scoring with 24 points. “I’m finding the net,” Petry told reporters. “It’s frustrating when you hit a post or you miss the net, which is on me, but I knew if I kept shooting, eventually it was going to go in.” Max Domi (team-best 32 points) and linemate Jonathan Drouin (27) each notched an assist on Thursday and have combined for nine points in three games against the Senators this season.

• The Canadiens are 0-for-18 on the power play over their last six meetings with the Senators.
