Drake Batherson and Tim Stutzle each registered two goals and an assist as the Ottawa Senators cruised past the visiting Boston Bruins 7-2 on Monday night.

Batherson factored into the scoring in all three periods, including the game-tying goal at 10:25 of the first. Claude Giroux netted the go-ahead goal at 1:08 of the second, while Stutzle lit the lamp twice to highlight Ottawa's four-goal final frame.

Fabian Zetterlund posted a goal and an assist, Nick Cousins also scored and Jake Sanderson had three helpers for the Senators, who overcame an early 1-0 deficit and finished 4-for-5 on the power play en route to their third consecutive win.

Ottawa's Leevi Merilainen stopped 27 of 29 shots after allowing seven goals in his only other start this season.
