Already playing without top center Matt Duchene

LOS ANGELES (AP) — William Nylander Jersey , the Ottawa Senators could have thrown in the towel when Colin White sustained an injury early in the first period against the Los Angeles Kings.Instead, the young Senators showed their mettle to win consecutive road games for the first time this season.Chris Tierney scored twice and the Senators beat the Kings 4-1 on Thursday night.“Obviously Colin going down early, a lot of guys had to step up and play some big minutes, so I thought the whole team gave a 60-minutes effort,” Tierney said. “Every forward, every D, goalie, everybody was going.”Bobby Ryan had a power-play goal and Christian Wolanin also scored for the Senators, who won on back-to-back nights at Anaheim and Los Angeles. Anders Nilsson made 33 saves.“Over time we’re going to gain that maturity,” Ottawa coach Guy Boucher said. “That’s experience, and you can’t just ask for it and get it when you got such a young team. You can see it Zach Hyman Jersey , pretty much everybody is growing.”Ottawa also got its first consecutive wins since a three-game streak Nov. 27-Dec. 1 despite losing White to an apparent upper-body injury on a check from Jake Muzzin.Boucher said White will return to Ottawa for further examination and would miss at least two weeks.“It was a major character win,” Boucher said. “It looked like we weren’t going to get much of a chance tonight, but our guys did a terrific job.”The Senators took the lead by scoring two goals 2:41 apart in the second period. Tierney put the Senators ahead 2-1 at 16:40 after Ryan scored on the power play at 14:59 to tie it at 1 and extend his point streak to six games.Mikkel Boedker got his 200th career assist on Tierney’s goal.Wolanin made it 3-1 at 1:22 of the third period. Tierney added an empty-netter at 19:02, giving him five points in his past three games.Tierney was equally pleased with the defensive effort, holding the Ducks and Kings to one goal each after allowing at least four goals seven times during an eight-game losing streak.Nilsson, who was traded from Vancouver to Ottawa on Jan. 2, did his part by stopping 65 of 67 shots against the two Southern California teams.“I thought we tweaked a couple things coming into this road trip and been paying off so far obviously,” Tierney said. “But you got to give a lot of credit to Nilly, he made a couple huge saves. Both games now he’s made timely saves that kept the game in reach and kept us with the lead here tonight.”Kyle Clifford scored and Jonathan Quick made 23 saves for the Kings.The Kings went up 1-0 at 3:47 of the second period when Clifford redirected Muzzin’s shot. Clifford’s second goal in the past three games was little consolation for what he descried as an “awful” performance by the reeling Kings, who have lost four of five.“That’s just embarrassing to be honest,” Clifford said. “There’s not much more to say other than that.”NOTES: Senators D Ben Harpur Alex Burmistrov Jersey , who did not play because of an upper-body injury, is also set to return to Ottawa for further examination. Boucher said Harpur will miss at least two weeks. … Duchene is not expected to rejoin the team for the conclusion of their three-game California trip at San Jose on Saturday following the birth of his son. … Kings D Alec Martinez returned after missing 14 games because of an upper-body injury.UP NEXTSenators: Visit San Jose on Saturday.Kings: Host Pittsburgh on Saturday. RALEIGH, N.C. — The Carolina Hurricanes are coming off a monumental offensive performance.The Vancouver Canucks last dealt with multiple defensive malfunctions.Now the teams meet Tuesday night at PNC Arena.Article continues below ...It’s less than a week into the season so it’s too soon to identify trends, but the Hurricanes generally like their direction.“It’s fun to watch them grow,” first-year Hurricanes coach Rod Brind’Amour said of a team dotted with newcomers.The Hurricanes (2-0-1) have five points through three games, a mark achieved only once before in franchise history and the first time since the relocation to North Carolina more than 20 years ago.Granted, they were exposed in Sunday’s game at times, but the 8-5 victory against the New York Rangers was rewarding.“We’ve definitely given up some quality opportunities,” Brind’Amour said. “I keep reminding myself that we have a young group and they’re going to make mistakes. … Obviously, it easier when we do score (like that).”Perhaps worn out by all the scoring, the Hurricanes didn’t practice Monday.Yet defense will be part of the emphasis in the Vancouver game.“Play better defensively and hopefully keep scoring lots of goals and we’ll be fine http://www.officialcanucks.com/authentic-adidas-bo-horvat-jersey ,” Hurricanes left winger Jordan Martinook said. “In this league, wins matter.”The Canucks (1-1-0) are concerned about defense under second-year coach Travis Green.Vancouver was on the wrong end of a high-scoring game in Saturday’s 7-4 loss at Calgary, which has been the opponent for both its games so far.“We have to player better defense — be more strict,” Canucks center Elias Pettersson said. “Everyone is good out there. You have to play your best.”Addressing some of the details will be important for Vancouver, which gave up 35 and 37 shots in the first two games, respectively.“We’ve got some pretty skilled players on our team,” said Canucks center Brandon Sutter, a former Carolina player. “We have to keep getting better. We have a young team. We can be better.”The Hurricanes have found the first-week magic and aim to keep it rolling.“You start playing with that confidence,” said Martinook, who has two goals and an assist. “It’s crazy how confidence can help you out and I’m going to try to ride it.”Hurricanes right winger Andrei Svechnikov, an 18-year-old Youth Brandon Sutter Jersey , became the first NHL player born in the 2000s to score a goal in Sunday’s victory.“That’s my dream to score my first goal in the NHL — and my dream came true,” Svechnikov said. “… I feel every game better.”The Hurricanes didn’t announce a goalie Monday for the matchup with Vancouver. Petr Mrazek is 2-0-0 all-time against the Canucks, but he allowed five goals in Sunday’s game.The Carolina defense will have to track Pettersson, a 19-year-old who has three goals and two assists already.“Of course, I’m happy with that,” he said.Since 1990-91, Pettersson is the seventh rookie in the NHL to register five points across his first two games. Until last week, no Canucks player had goals in each of his first two career games since Rick Lanz in the 1980-81 season.
