Penguins Explode for Seven Goals to Top Ottawa

Jana Chytilova/Freestyle Photography/Getty Images(OTTAWA) -- The Pittsburgh Penguins exploded for four goals in the third period en route to a 7-3 victory over the Ottawa Senators in Game 4 of their Eastern Conference semifinals series Wednesday.

The Penguins now lead the series 3-1.

While the Penguins ended up winning big, it looked like Ottawa had the edge early. Milan Michalek and Kyle Turris each scored for the Senators in the opening period, giving Ottawa a 2-1 lead heading into the second.

“That was the first time in regulation we’ve been behind,” Pittsburgh head coach Dan Bylsma said. “There was some good emotion going in the building for their team. We were able to do that, get some good chances and shoot the puck quite a bit. It looked like it was going to be tough to get it by (Anderson). There was a sense that this might take 50 or as many shots as it takes to break this guy. Fortunately we kept on that mindset.”

And it payed off.

Pittsburgh peppered Ottawa goalie Craig Anderson with 38 shots, scoring six times before Anderson was pulled in the third period.

Jerome Iginla and James Neal both scored twice for the Penguins, while Sidney Crosby and Pascal Dupuis each scored their 7th goal of the playoffs in the win.

Game 5 is Friday night in Pittsburgh. The puck is scheduled to drop at 7:30 p.m. Eastern.

Senators Clip Pens 2-1 in Double Overtime Thriller

Francois Laplante/NHLI via Getty Images(OTTAWA) --  Colin Greening scored the game-winning goal 7:39 into double overtime to give the Ottawa Senators a 2-1 Game 3 victory over the Pittsburgh Penguins.

The Penguins still lead their Eastern Conference semifinal series two games to one.

Down 1-0 with less than a minute remaining in the third period, Daniel Alfredsson scored a short-handed goal with 33 seconds left to tie the game at one.

"We were just calm," Anderson said of the Senators' mood heading into overtime. "We had tied it up. We had momentum. We felt like the fans really rallied behind us.

Craig Anderson made 49 saves for the Senators, including 18 in both overtimes.  Penguins goalie Tomas Vokoun suffered his first loss since taking over for Mark-Andre Fleury

"Whether you win or lose, you always turn the page quickly and concentrate on the next one," Penguins captain Sidney Crosbo said. "Obviously it's disappointing, but we will bounce back."

Game 4 of the best-of-seven series is Wednesday night in Ottawa.

Penguins Eliminate Islanders With 4-3 Overtime Win

Paul Bereswill/Getty Images(UNIONDALE N.Y.) --  Brooks Orpik scored the game-winning goal 7:49 into overtime as the Pittsburgh Penguins eliminated the New York Islanders with a 4-3 win Saturday night at Nassau Veterans Memorial Coliseum.

The Penguins overcame three separate one-goal deficits throughout the game, as they eliminate the Islanders in six games.

"I'm definitely not a goal-scorer, but he laid it right on a tee for me," Orpik said after scoring only his 12th-career NHL goal. "I wish I can say I was trying to go there, but I was just trying to put it on net, and found a hole."

The Islanders had a 3-2 lead late in the third period when Paul Martin scored a game-tying goal with 5:16 remaining.  A win would have sent the teams back to Pittsburgh for a Game 7.

Tomas Vokoun gave up three goals but also stopped 35 shots in net for Pittsburgh.

The Penguins advance to play the Ottawa Senators in the second round.

Senators Advance, Defeat Montreal 6-1

Francois Laplante/Freestyle Photo/Getty Images(MONTREAL) -- The Senators are moving on to the second round of the playoffs.

Corey Conacher scored twice, and Craig Anderson stopped 33 shots leading the No. 7 seed Ottawa Senators to a 6-1 Game 5 victory over the No. 2 seed Montreal Canadians Thursday night.

The loss means the Canadians lose the best-of-seven playoff series 4-1.

Ottawa got the scoring started fast when center Zach Smith scored 2:17 into the opening period. Conacher scored about 10 minutes later to make it 2-0, but Canadians defenseman P.K. Subban scored with 15 seconds left in the first, making it a one goal game.

After that, it was all Ottawa, scoring four special teams goals en route to the victory.

It is the first time since 2007 that Ottawa has won a playoff series.
