OTTAWA, Ontario (AP) --- Jake Sanderson scored a pair of goals and the Ottawa
Senators were closer to a playoff appearance with a 6-2 win over the Tampa Bay
Lightning on Tuesday night.
Jordan Spence, Fabian Zetterlund, Tim Stutzle and Shane Pinto also scored for
Ottawa. Brady Tkachuk had four assists and goaltender Linus Ullmark made 28
saves for the win.
Nick Paul and Corey Perry scored for the Lightning. Jonas Johansson made 26
saves.
Tied 1-1 to start the third, the Senators scored twice in less than two minutes
to take a two-goal lead.
Perry pulled the Lightning within one midway through the third when he was left
all alone and raised a shot over a sprawled Ullmark.
The Senators added a pair of power-play goals to secure the victory.
Pinto scored into an empty net.
With an assist on Ottawa's opening goal, Stutzle recorded his second-career
80-point season.
