Shannon gives Sens shootout win over Islanders

OTTAWA — Ryan Shannon scored the decisive shootout goal to give the Ottawa Senators a 3-2 win over the New York Islanders on Thursday night.

Shannon, who ended a three-game goal streak, delivered Ottawa’s third straight shootout tally after Alex Kovalev and Mike Fisher also beat Dwayne Roloson with the Senators’ first two shots.

Pascal Leclaire stopped John Tavares on the Islanders’ final attempt after Frans Nielsen and Rob Schremp scored on New York’s first two shots.

Chris Kelly and Peter Regin scored second-period goals for Ottawa, which was without top players Daniel Alfredsson and Jason Spezza. The Senators have won three of four.

Jon Sim scored 56 seconds into the third to draw the Islanders even at 2. Schremp gave New York a 1-0 lead with a power-play goal 7:55 into the second.

Regin put Ottawa ahead 2-1, scoring his fifth goal with 51.8 seconds left in the middle period after Kelly tied it with his fifth at 14:26.

Referee Steve Kozari pointed to signal the Senators’ go-ahead goal when the puck wound up in the back of the net after Roloson made the initial stop on Regin’s shot.

A video review upheld Kozari’s ruling, showing that the puck fell behind Roloson, who inadvertently knocked it toward the goal line with the end of his stick. Matt Moulson prevented the puck from completely crossing the line, pulling it back into the crease before it was jammed home off the blade of Roloson’s stick with a push from Ottawa’s Jonathon Cheechoo.

Schremp, who scored the only shootout goal in the Islanders’ 2-1 win over Columbus on Tuesday, got his second goal of the season when he took Mark Streit’s setup pass and snapped a shot past Leclaire from the right side. That put New York ahead 1-0 at 7:55 of the second.

Former Islanders defenseman Chris Campoli, who assisted on Regin’s go-ahead goal late in the second, and New York’s Andy Sutton drew roughing penalties immediately after the tying goal early in the third. Campoli cross-checked Sim, and Sutton retaliated.

Matt Carkner drew each of Ottawa’s three penalties in the opening period, including a double-minor for roughing after he threw couple of quick punches in Tim Jackman’s face following the buzzer.

Jackman, who had checked Campoli into the end boards as time expired, was taken to the hospital for precautionary reasons to have his eye checked, an Islanders spokesman said.

NOTES: Campoli had 83 points in 228 games with the Islanders from 2005-09. … Senators D Alexandre Picard was a healthy scratch. Picard, who was a minus-three Wednesday, was replaced in the lineup by rookie Erik Karlsson.
