Senators 2, Lightning 1 (OT): Defenseman Patrick Wiercioch scored his third goal of the season at 4:43 of overtime as Ottawa defeated visiting Tampa Bay.

Rookie Mark Stone recorded his 20th goal before his cross-ice pass set up Wiercioch, who hammered a shot from the right faceoff circle through a screen for the winner. Kyle Turris notched two assists while Andrew Hammond made 28 saves to improve to 16-1-1 overall and keep the Senators within three points of Boston for the second wild card in the Eastern Conference with a game in hand.

Jonathan Drouin scored his second goal in three games for the Lightning, who lost for the fourth time in five contests (1-3-1) but remained one point behind first-place Montreal in the Atlantic Division. Ben Bishop turned aside 32 shots for Tampa Bay, which dropped to 1-2-1 on its five-game road trip.

Stone opened the scoring 5:03 into the contest, chipping in a rebound for his second goal in four games after Bishop denied Turris' shot from the point. The Lightning tied it during a power play with 3:07 left in the first period as defenseman Anton Stralman slid the puck to a wide-open Drouin, who beat Hammond to the glove side from the right circle.

Ottawa failed to take advantage of two power-play opportunities in the second period while Hammond kept it tied with 10 saves, including a big glove stop on Lightning captain Steven Stamkos. Each team registered eight shots in the third session and Bishop made the biggest save, denying David Legwand on a short-handed breakaway.
