Puljujarvi burst through the Senators' defense alone on a lead pass from McDavid and scooped up his own rebound to score his first of the night at 12:45 of the first. Just 1:44 later, Draisaitl added the Oilers' third goal.

Puljujarvi, 22, got his second 5:30 into the second period. Parked in front of the net, he knocked down a shot from Evan Bouchard and the puck bounced past Hogberg.

Paquette put the Senators on the scoreboard at 12:06 of the middle frame. Logging his first goal and point with Ottawa, the center who won the Stanley Cup last year with the Tampa Bay Lightning fired a shot past Koskinen.

Stutzle added one more for the Senators with 29 seconds left on the clock. Derek Stepan sent Stutzle ahead with a long pass, and the 19-year-old fooled Koskinen through the five hole.

In their past nine games, the Senators have been outscored 45-19.
