Sens' Spezza scores winning goal in SO
Published in The Saudi Gazette on 12 - 11 - 2009

Jason Spezza scored the winning goal in the shootout for the Ottawa Senators, who came from behind twice to beat the Edmonton Oilers 4-3 Tuesday.
Chris Neil scored his third goal of the season with just under 7 minutes left in regulation to give the Senators a 3-2 lead. Just under 2 minutes later, Gilbert Brule tied the game with a hard shot from the slot that trickled past Ottawa goalie Pascal Leclaire. Jonathan Cheechoo and Nick Foligno also scored for the Senators. Leclaire made 31 saves.
Dustin Penner and Ethan Moreau had first-period goals for the Oilers, and Jeff Drouin-Deslauriers stopped 22 shots.
Bruins 3, Penguins 0: At Boston, Tim Thomas stopped 27 shots for his second shutout of the season, while Pittsburgh's Sidney Crosby was held without a point for the fifth straight game.
Matt Hunwick backhanded a rebound under the crossbar, then had to wait 77 seconds for a whistle so NHL officials could consult a video replay and give Boston the goal. Mark Recchi had the 900th assist of his career, Daniel Paille had his first goal with the Bruins, and Patrice Bergeron added a short-handed empty-netter with 3.5 seconds left as Boston won consecutive games for the first time this season.
Wild 5, Maple Leafs 2: At Toronto, Mikko Koivu had a goal and two assists as Minnesota ended Toronto's two-game winning streak.
Marek Zidlicky broke a 1-1 tie at 5:44 of the period.
Then, 26 seconds after Koivu beat Jonas Gustavsson at 17:29, Greg Zanon made it 4-1.
Niklas Backstrom made that stand up with 37 saves for the Wild, who got goals from Martin Havlat and Owen Nolan into an empty net to win for the fourth time in five games.
Minnesota won in Toronto for the first time (1-4) since joining the NHL in 2000-01.
Flames 1, Canadiens 0: At Montreal, Miikka Kiprusoff got his first shutout of the season and Jarome Iginla extended his goal-scoring streak to four games as Calgary downed Montreal.
Blues 6, Canucks 1: At St. Louis, David Perron scored three goals, two in a span of 1:54 during a four-goal first period, and Brad Boyes added a goal and three assists for St. Louis.
Sharks 4, Predators 3: At San Jose, California, Dan Boyle scored with a minute left in the third period as San Jose edged Nashville.
