Filip Chlapik had a power-play goal for the Senators.
Goalie Craig Anderson played the first half of the game for Ottawa and allowed one goal on 18 shots before being replaced by Mike McKenna, who gave up two goals on nine shots.

Matthews opened the scoring early in the second period as he was left all alone at the left post to score his first of the pre-season. Matthews looked solid playing with Patrick Marleau and Ennis.
The Leafs took a 2-0 lead midway through the third as Calle Rosen made a great pass to Bracco who slipped through, as the Senators got caught on a bad line change, and beat McKenna.
Ottawa got on board with a power-play goal as Chlapik, who was one of the best Senators on this night, knocked down a puck in front and beat Pickard from in close, but a bad giveaway by Ben Harpur allowed Ennis to intercept and beat McKenna.
Brady Tkachuk, the Senators’ first round pick, fourth overall, made his debut. The 19-year-old had his moments, but a penalty for cross-checking and unsportsmanlike conduct midway through the second probably won’t go over well with head coach Guy Boucher.
A scoreless first period saw both teams getting a feel for one another.
Both teams are back in action Friday, with the Leafs hosting the Buffalo Sabres at Scotiabank Arena and the Senators welcoming the Chicago Blackhawks to town.
