"I'm seeing some positive signs when I look at the last three games," Senators interim coach Jacques Martin said. "I told the team after (Thursday's) game that we've done some good things. I think we're building each game. I feel like we've beaten ourselves the last three games. We've had lapses where other teams have taken advantage.
"I feel that we're getting better, but it's something that we've just got to work at it on a daily basis."
Goaltender Joonas Korpisalo, who has a 7-15-0 record and a 3.69 goals-against average to go along with an .887 save percentage, came away with a right groin injury in Thursday's loss.
