Gaudette and Perron lead Senators over Predators 5-2

Adam Gaudette and David Perron each scored a goal and added an assist to lead the Ottawa Senators to a 5-2 victory over the Nashville Predators on Monday night

FEBRUARY 4 • Associated Press

Dishes helper Perron registered a power-play assist, a minus-1 rating and three shots during Thursday's 5-4 overtime win against the Capitals.

Impact Perron's helper on Ridley Greig's opening goal is the first point of the season for the 36-year-old who has missed a whopping 38 games due to various issues. Perron is expected to generate offense more consistently on a second line with Josh Norris and Drake Batherson, but fantasy managers will likely want to wait for him to get some more games under his feet to shake the rust off.

Back in action after injury Perron (back) had one shot and one hit in 11 minutes of ice time in Thursday's 2-0 loss to Boston.

Impact Perron had missed 27 games to the injury, and Thursday's match was his 10th game of the season. He remains without a point this season. The Sens were hoping for a lot more when they signed Perron in the offseason. He was coming off a 47-point campaign in Detroit and had missed only six games over the last two seasons. Perron may be able to catch some second-half magic, but we recommend watching his recovery closely before you pick him up. Back problems can flare up out of nowhere.
