From Associated Press

A hat trick by Alexei Yashin sparked the Ottawa Senators to a 7-1 victory over the Blues at St. Louis Tuesday on a night when the Senators broke several offensive team records, including those for quickest three, four and five goals in a game since the team joined the league in 1992.

The Senators also tied their record for goals in a game, set in 1993, and broke the record for largest margin of victory, set last season.

The Blues did not offer any excuses after the one-sided game.

“I can’t think of any time we’ve hit rock bottom this year any harder than this,” Coach Mike Keenan said.
