OTTAWA, Ontario -- Just four games into the season and the Ottawa Senators are already looking to improve on their consistency.Five Senators had a goal and an assist each as Ottawa defeated the Arizona Coyotes 7-4 on Tuesday night in front of a sparse crowd of 11,061 at Canadian Tire Centre. The win came a day after a 5-1 loss in Detroit where the Senators seemed sluggish.It was a good game to bounce back. We were disappointed with our effort (Monday) night and we had a meeting and talked about the things we need to improve on, said Tom Pyatt, who scored late in the first period on Tuesday.Tonight was definitely a better effort and we did all the simple things.Zack Smith had a short-handed goal and Bobby Ryan scored on the power play for the Senators. Mark Stone, Chris Kelly, Kyle Turris and Erik Karlsson, into an empty net, also scored for Ottawa. Mike Hoffman had three assists. Craig Anderson made 31 saves to earn the win.Pyatt, Kelly, Turris, Stone and Karlsson all had two-point nights.With the back-to-back and the travel we just wanted to come out, play our game and be consistent with it, Turris said. We played a much better game but we gave up more shots than we would have liked but were clicking offensively. Its a work in progress.Jordan Martinook scored twice for Arizona, including his second at 18:43 just 30 seconds after Turris gave the Senators a 6-3 lead. Tobias Rieder and Oliver Ekman-Larsson had the other goals for the Coyotes.Arizona lost the services of starting goalie Mike Smith seven minutes into the third period when he suffered an injury to his left leg during a scramble in front of the net.Well re-evaluate (Wednesday), but its too early to get any diagnosis yet.
