Hockey Betting Lines
02/22/2012 - Ottawa, ON (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Milan Michalek tallied twice to lead Ottawa past Washington, 5-2, at Scotiabank Place.
Erik Karlsson picked up a goal and two assists for the Senators, who have won four in a row and five of their last six.
Chris Phillips and Nick Foligno also found the net to back a 33-save performance from Craig Anderson.
John Carlson and Mathieu Perreault scored for the Capitals, who have dropped three in a row and six of seven. Alex Ovechkin did not play due to a lower- body injury suffered Monday at Carolina and is listed as day-to-day.
Tomas Vokoun was removed after allowing four goals on 11 shots in 32-plus minutes. Michal Neuvirth finished up by stopping all 14 shots he faced.
Despite a four-goal hole heading into the final 20 minutes, the visitors awoke when Carlson fired a shot past Anderson off a Semin dish at the 2:19 mark. Perreault then brought the Caps within 4-2 just seconds before the midway point.
Washington put an extra attacker on with 1:42 remaining, and Foligno hit the empty net less than 30 seconds later.
Karlsson put the Sens on the board just prior to the midway point of the first period on a wrister from the bottom of the right circle.
Michalek doubled the advantage with 5:47 to go, moving around Caps defenseman Dennis Wideman in the right circle and sliding a shot inside the near post.
Michalek added another score on a power play at 3:37 of the second period, and Philips struck at 12:08 on the advantage for a four-goal margin.
