OTTAWA - With points in 10 of their last 11 games, the Ottawa Senators feel like they’re trending in the right direction.

In an Eastern Conference where a single point can put you in contention or take you out of it, the Senators (8-5-4) know far too well the importance of picking up every point they can get.

“I think it’s just the persistency of this team," said Nick Jensen, after his team dropped a 3-2 overtime decision to the visiting Dallas Stars on Tuesday night. “Sometimes games don’t go your way when they should, and, you know, you can get down or feel bad about it but I think this group just gets right back at it the next day.

"And takes that approach day-by-day and I think that process driven approach is something that’s going to keep us successful.”
