Gabriel Pizza Gameday Build-Up: Senators Aim to Tame Wolf Pack

Game Details

Date: Saturday, November 8, 2025

Opponent: Hartford Wolf Pack (AHL affiliate: New York Rangers)

Context

The Belleville Senators will have limited time on home ice this month, playing only four of their 13 November games at CAA Arena. Tonight marks the first home game of the month as the Sens host the Hartford Wolf Pack. This game continues a busy three-in-three weekend and offers Belleville a chance to revive their offense after being shut out in Utica on Friday night.

Team Performance

The recent 3-0 loss dropped Belleville below .500 with a 4-5-1-0 record early in the season. However, this defeat was unusual compared to their recent form, as the Senators have won four of their last six games, outscoring opponents 22-19 during that span.

Hartford seeks to end a three-game winless streak (0-1-2-0), including a 4-2 loss to Laval last night.

Head-to-Head

Belleville and Hartford face off only twice this season, with tonight being the first encounter and the 15th overall meeting between the two teams. Belleville holds a lifetime record of 9-4-1-0 against the Wolf Pack, including a 4-3-0-0 record at home. They split their two-game series last year.

"The loss last night dips Belleville back below the .500 mark at 4-5-1-0 on the young season, but the 3-0 defeat was an anomaly given how the Sens have played of late."

"Even with the loss to the Comets, the Senators have still won four of their last six games, and have outscored opponents 22-19 over that stretch."

Summary

The Senators face the Wolf Pack determined to bounce back at home during a tight November schedule, relying on strong recent form to overcome a tough start to the season.
