9 - Times in 27 outings the Senators have scored first this season. Only Florida (eight), Carolina (seven) and the Buffalo Sabres (five) have scored first in fewer games this fall.

21 - Assists in November for Pittsburgh's Evgeni Malkin. The last player to register that many assists in a calendar month was Wayne Gretzky for the Los Angeles Kings in January 1996.
