11/20/2008 - Ottawa, ON (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Alex Tanguay notched the game-winner in the shootout as Montreal clipped Ottawa, 3-2, at Scotiabank Place.
After Ottawa's Antoine Vermette missed his opportunity wide of the net, Tanguay skated at an odd angle down the center of the ice on his chance, showing backhand all the way. Despite Sens goaltender Alex Auld sliding in the crease, the veteran winger was able to push his shot through the pads for the winner.
Saku Koivu and Andrei Markov scored in regulation for the Canadiens, winners in two of three. Carey Price made 23 saves for his ninth win of the year.
Dany Heatley and Nick Foligno lit the lamp for the Senators, who have dropped a season-worst six games in a row. Auld took the loss despite a 19-save performance.
Heatley's knuckler from 15 feet gave the Sens a 1-0 lead 4:21 into the contest, then Montreal struck back on the power play with 6:27 left in the first as Koivu beat Auld through the pads from along the goalline.
A scoreless and relatively passionless second period saw Auld turn away only three shots and Price make seven saves.
Ottawa forged ahead once again on Foligno's turn-around shot at the 4:58 mark of the third, but Montreal tied the game with 4:24 remaining on Markov's wrister.
Habs forward Guillaume Latendresse went off for high sticking with 16 seconds left in the third period but the Habs weathered the storm and were able to hold off the home team through the end of overtime.
Game Notes
The Habs have won the last four meetings, including both this season...Montreal improved to 4-2 in shootouts this season while Ottawa fell to 0-3...Seven of the game's 10 penalties were whistled against the Canadiens...Senators defenseman Alex Picard picked up two assists.

MySportsbook.com favors Bears, Bengals, Chargers and Colts to remain perfect
LAS VEGAS , Sept. 28 - Two big match-ups of undefeated teams have fans salivating at the Week Four schedule in the NFL. The Chicago Bears stifling defense looks to provide a less than hospitable welcome to the Seattle Seahawks on Sunday night in a battle of two 3-0 teams in the NFC conference. In the AFC, the San Diego Chargers (2-0) head to Maryland to face the surprising Baltimore Ravens (3-0) as both try to keep pace atop the conference standings. Betting Lines makers at MySportsbook.com, online sportsbook and casino, have set the Bears as 3.5 point favorites while the Chargers are a 2.5 point bet.
Of the three remaining undefeated teams, only one, New Orleans, enters this week's game as an underdog. Despite an emotional and resounding win over Atlanta on Monday night, the Saints are a 7.5 point underdog against the struggling Carolina Panthers. Indianapolis looks to stay perfect when they face the New York Jets as a 9 point road favorite while the Cincinnati Bengals are a 6 point favorite at home to the New England Patriots.
Six teams enter the week still looking for their first win, with a seventh, Tampa Bay, on a bye week. The prospect of dropping another game would not bode well for a potential playoff run. Since 1990, just three teams -- the 1992 Chargers, 1995 Detroit Lions and 1998 Buffalo Bills -- have overcome losing their first three games of the season to earn a postseason berth. And only the Chargers managed to accomplish the feat after starting 0-4.
