PITTSBURGH, Pa. - Thanks to Sidney Crosby, Christian Ehrhoff had plenty of time and space for his go-ahead goal.They missed the coverage on the weak side, the Penguins defenceman said.(Crosby) made a great pass. I found a seam. I had a lot of time and picked the corner, and it went right where I wanted to put it.Ehrhoffs goal with 1:50 left in the third period lifted Pittsburgh to a 3-2 win over reeling Ottawa, which its fifth consecutive game.The Penguins also got two goals from Evgeni Malkin.David Legwand and Mika Zibanejad scored for the Senators to forge a 2-2 tie after two periods.Pittsburgh, which had dominated the first period, began to carry the play as the third period was winding down. Crosby moved the puck up the left side to start the winning play.I saw (Ehrhoff) there sneaking, said Crosby, who entered Saturday tied for the NHL lead with 33 points but whose assist on Ehrhoffs goal broke a three-game points-less streak.He had a lot of time. Hes got a big shot. He showed it there. You give him time like that and hes got a hard one. He put it in a perfect spot, top shelf.Ehrhoff had a clear look at the net and the luxury of contemplating how he might beat goaltender Craig Anderson.That doesnt happen too often, so it was a bit of a surprise, but definitely nice for us, Ehrhoff said. Usually when you have that much time, you think too much, but I just knew where I wanted to put it, and like I said, this time I put it right where I wanted.The goal put the Senators in a 6-10-4 slide since opening the season 4-1.I thought we created enough opportunities for us to win the game today and we have to continue to do that and we probably could have created more if we would have put the puck to the net in situations when we had people there, Ottawa coach Paul MacLean said.Were angry that we lost the game. It was a game certainly that was winnable.Anderson, who got shaken up on the Penguins first goal but remained in the game and made 30 saves, said losing winnable games has become a theme.Were doing a lot of good things that enable us to win games and were just not getting the results right now, he said. It can be frustrating at times, but if we keep focusing on the process and keep focusing on our game, the results will turn around for us and thats what the last few games have been about. Weve been there. Weve been close. We just need to get over that hump.The Penguins, who have not lost consecutive regulation games this season, described the game as a bounce-back from a lacklustre performance Thursday in a 3-0 loss to Vancouver.The first period we controlled the puck, Malkin said. We controlled the game, controlled the puck. The last 10 minutes we played great. We shot the puck, spent time in the offensive zone. It was a big two points for us.Malkin, who moved from centre to winger because of injuries, opened the scoring at 4:17 of the first period. Just out of the penalty box after serving a roughing minor, Malkin caught up to the puck in front of the Ottawa bench. He cut in from the left point and tucked the puck behind Andersons right skate for the only goal of the first period.Malkins full-body follow-through took him into Anderson.I tried to stop, but I had too much speed, Malkin said.Later in the first period, Penguins forward Zach Sill was escorted off the ice on a game misconduct after he levelled Ottawas Kyle Turris in the neutral zone, then fought Senators forward Alex Chiasson.There was no immediate word on whether Sill might face a disciplinary hearing with the NHL for the high hit. Turris returned to the game shortly after the hit.Hockey is hockey. Thats not up to me. The referees called it, the league looks at it, MacLean said.At 1:13 of the second period, Legwand tied it for Ottawa 1-1 during a power play when he deflected a shot from the left point by Erik Karlsson past Pittsburgh goaltender Marc-Andre Fleury.Zibanejad shrugged off close coverage by the Penguins Andrew Ebbett and threw the puck between Fleurys past for a 2-1 lead at 8:44.Malkin tipped a shot by Olli Maatta past Anderson during a Pittsburgh power play to tie it 2-2 at 18:03.NOTES: Winger Patric Hornqvist, who is still being evaluated for a possible concussion, did not play. The Penguins also were without injured defenceman Kris Letang, injured forward Chris Kunitz, Beau Bennett and Pascal Dupuis, and suspended defenceman Robert Bortuzzo. ...

Andrej Nestrasils three-point night helped Grand Rapids to a 7-2 win over the Abbotsford Heat and a 2-0 lead in its best-of-five first-round series. The third-year pro scored his first two career AHL playoff goals and added an assist in the blowout victory. "Hes been good," said Griffins captain Jeff Hoggan. "He was in Toledo (ECHL) last year but hes a skilled player. When we lose guys like (Tomas Tatar) and (Tomas) Jurco, guys who go up to the Red Wings, we need somebody to fill that role and hes done a fantastic job for us." The Griffins now head back home in hopes of a sweep after taking both games at the Abbotsford Centre. The Griffins won 2-1 on Friday in double overtime. "Yesterday was the first game of the playoffs, so everyone was kind of nervous," said Nestrasil. "I felt that sometimes we were trying to make plays, even if they werent there. Today we started a little more simple and it came out of that. We didnt let them shoot. They scored two first-period goals, five shots on net, so were going to try to play better defensively, because when you play well defensively you get the offensive chances after." Ryan Sproul, the Game 1 overtime hero, and Teemu Pulkkinen each had a goal and two assists for Grand Rapids while Trevor Parkes, Cody Emmerton and Hoggan also scored for the visitors, whose parent club Detroit was eliminated from the NHL playoffs and is expected to send some bodies back for Game 3 on Wednesday. "Weve got some talented young guys back there," said Hoggan of rookie defencemen like Sproul. "This is the time when you want to see what theyre all about. Playoff hockey is the toughest hockey. For them to step up, its going to be huge for us to go on and go far. We know theyre capable and theyre doing it at crunch time." Petr Mrazek had to stop just 15 shots, compared to his 55-save performance the night before. Max Reinhart had a goal and an assist for Abbotsford, which may have played its final home game after it was announced last week that the franchise wwill not be back in the city next season.dddddddddddd. Emile Poirier had the other goal, while Joni Ortio stopped 25-of-30 shots before being pulled. Doug Carr mopped up, making 14 saves. Though the Heat were embarrassed on home ice, and cancelled their regular post-game presser, the Griffins know that Game 3 wont be easy. "We have to make sure its hard for them to get opportunities," said Nestrasil. "Every chance, they need to earn it and make sure they have to come through us all the time." Abbotsford opened the scoring at the 7:40 mark of the first. Reinhart stepped into a shot in the high slot. Mrazek kicked it right to Poirier, who quickly brought the puck to his forehand and snapped it blocker side for his first professional playoff goal. The visitors, however, tied the game not long after. Mattias Janmark drove hard to the net and centred for Parkes, who chipped it by Ortio for his first AHL playoff goal at 10:13. The Heat regained the lead with a power-play goal at 15:32. Reinhart tried to centre for Ben Hanowski but it ricocheted off the skate of Brennan Evans. Just 35 seconds later the Griffins again drew even when Sprouls one-timer from the point was deflected by Nestrasil. Grand Rapids scored a short-handed goal late in the first to take their first lead. Emmerton made a move around one defender, then fought off another and chipped the puck past Ortio while falling to his backside, giving Detroits 2006 second-round selection his first AHL playoff goal in five years. Hoggan doubled the lead two minutes into the second period when he took a cross-ice feed from Pulkkinen and fired a wrist shot over the glove of Ortio, giving him 14 career AHL playoff goals. Nestrasil chased Ortio at 11:19 of the second, snapping a shot short side from a bad angle. "I just wanted to dump the puck in, but nobody came to me," said the Prague native. "I was basically walking into the zone. I just threw it at the net and it went through. Im glad I can score a goal like that. Im glad we scored a lot of goals because it gives the guys confidence." Sproul scored a power-play goal at 6:45 of the third and Pulkkinen added another on the power play at 12:09.
