Ottawa pushed their luck to the max taking two penalty’s in the final 5 minutes of the contest. Marc Methot for holding and Mike Condon for delay of game. Mike Condon was stellar in a 42 save shutout performance recording his third shutout of the year. Condon has been a workhorse for the Sens playing in his 20th straight hockey game.
