To say the Ottawa Senators' win over the Chicago Blackhawks on Tuesday night was big would be an understatement.
For a team that just last week was in free fall in the Eastern Conference, things are looking up. Following a 4-1 victory over one of the NHL's best teams, they're looking way up, in fact.
"It means a lot for us, especially going forward," said centre Peter Regin, who had a goal and an assist to help the Senators record their fourth win in a row after they'd lost five straight. "We know we can beat the best teams in the league. We know we've had a little slump lately, but the last four games we've showed we're a good hockey team."
