OTTAWA, Ontario -- Mike Condon showed his new coach he was prepared to debut with the Ottawa Senators despite the circumstances.Condon, who was acquired from Pittsburgh on Wednesday for a 2017 fifth-round draft pick, made 27 saves as the Senators blanked the Vancouver Canucks 1-0 on Thursday night.Upon learning of the trade, Condon flew from Los Angeles to arrive in Ottawa in the early hours Thursday morning and managed to grab a few hours of sleep before meeting with Senators goalie coach Pierre Groulx in preparation for his first game with the Senators.Came as advertised, Senators coach Guy Boucher said. I was expecting nervous, but our goalie coach said hell be calm and thats exactly what he was. He was calm throughout the entire game.Condon made his first NHL start last year in Ottawa on Oct. 11, as a member of the Montreal Canadiens and posted a 3-1 victory.The Senators (7-3-0) couldnt say enough about Condons performance considering the situation over the past 48 hours.Coming in yesterday and then playing today Im guessing wasnt the easiest scenario for him, but he came in and played a heck of a game, said Mike Hoffman, who scored the games only goal. Hes a big reason we came out with two points.Jacob Markstrom made 23 saves for the Canucks (4-6-1), who have now lost seven straight (0-6-1) and have been shut out in four of their last five games.The Senators also shut out the Canucks 3-0 just over a week ago in Vancouver.Its disappointing, Canucks coach Willie Desjardins said. We played them better this time than we did at home. I thought we had a better effort, but at the same time weve got to find ways to score.Condon will likely get the nod in goal Saturday against Buffalo as Craig Anderson has taken an indefinite leave to be with his wife, Nicholle, who was diagnosed with cancer.Andrew Hammond remains sidelined with a groin injury and is expected to miss at least another week.Despite having played just one period of hockey this season, Condon looked solid by making a number of key saves throughout the game. The Senators helped Condon by blocking 25 shots, including five by Erik Karlsson.Condon made a number of stops in the third to keep the Canucks off the board, including two on Jannik Hansen and Sven Baertschi.I know theyre a desperate team right now and we knew that coming in, Condon said. They like to throw pucks at the net from a lot of odd angles and that causes a little bit of chaos, but our defense did a good job boxing out in front of the net and not letting them get second opportunities so it was a good overall effort.The Senators relied on Condon early in the second as well as Vancouver dictated much of the play. Ottawa had just one shot on goal through the first 10 minutes of the period.We played a really good game and created enough chances for a couple (goals), but thats been the story so far this year, Vancouvers Henrik Sedin said. We realize its only Game 11 and we have to keep working and doing the same things and know its not a lack of chances.Ottawa made the most of a giveaway by Erik Gudbranson at the 14-minute mark of the second period as Markstrom tried to play the loose puck, but instead left a wide-open cage for Hoffman.This was the final meeting between the teams this season.Game notes Ottawa RW Mark Stone missed the game due to a neck injury, while D Chris Wideman was a late scratch due to an upper-body injury. LW Max McCormick and Fredrik Claesson were recalled from Binghamton and were in the lineup. ... Vancouver RW Jack Skille and D Alex Biega were healthy scratches.UP NEXT:Canucks: are at Toronto on Saturday.Senators: host Buffalo on Saturday. Nike Air Vapormax Run Utility Sale .
