Pittsburgh goaltender Casey DeSmith blocks a shot on goal from the Ottawa Senators during overtime action Saturday night in Pittsburgh<\/p><\/div>\n

The Ottawa Senators rolled into Pittsburgh on Saturday night on a mission, and it was one they pulled off during overtime action to edge out the Penguins 2-1. It was a win Ottawa desperatly needed as they push to improve after a dismal start to the season.<\/p>\n

At the end of the third period, the Sens and Penguins were tied 1-1, but it was Evgeni Malkin’s push to score that defined the loss for Pittsburgh after Malkin made a bad line change during overtime. That led to the Ottawa Senators<\/a> going on the power play, and with 3:40 remaining, Ryan Dzingel scored to give Ottawa a 2-1 victory over Pittsburgh.<\/p>\n

For punters, that is good news, especially those who are fans on the Ottawa Senators, who currently are sitting near the bottom of the Atlantic Division. With the season approaching the holidays, oddsmakers are not favouring the Sens, not the Penguins, but sports betting sites such as Spin Palace Sports<\/a> still have excellent NHL promotions in place, and with up to $200 available in signup bonuses, an excellent opportunity exists.<\/p>\n

The Pittsburgh Penguins<\/a> came into the game on a two game winning streak, and after dropping four out of their last ten, three of which were in overtime and another during a shootout, the Penguins need to re-evaluate.<\/p>\n

The lead up to the penalty saw Crosby in the defensive zone as Jake Guentzel went to the bench, Malkin made the mistake thinking he was ok to jump onto the ice but left the bench too soon and earned a penalty for too many players on the ice. Malkin commented that,<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s my fault, I think I jumped a little bit early, but I see Sid has the puck. I tried to jump and have a breakaway. Probably I needed to wait one more second.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
