MONTREAL—Daniel Alfredsson scored on Ottawa's third shootout attempt and the Senators extended their winning streak to four with a 3-2 win over the Montreal Canadiens on Saturday night.
Craig Anderson, who got his first shutout of the season Thursday night at the New York Rangers, was perfect after making 33 saves in regulation and overtime.
Kyle Turris and Jason Spezza scored in the third to give Ottawa a 2-1 lead.
Max Pacioretty scored with 38.9 seconds to tie it at 2 with Carey Price pulled for an extra attacker. Tomas Plekanec scored a short-handed goal on a breakaway early in the third to put Montreal up 1-0.
Price made 23 saves for Montreal, including a sprawling stick save to deny Bobby Butler's scoring chance moments after Plekanec's goal.![]()
