1st Period
5:10 Jason Spezza 1 (power play) (Radek Bonk, Daniel Alfredsson)
Terrible Penalty Kill by Montreal (and a lack of coverage) leads to a nice goal by Spezza in front.
11:46 Ron Hainsey 1 (Joe Juneau, Andreas Dackell) *first career NHL goal
Hainsey jumps in from the point as a Habs powerplay expires and picks up his first NHL goal on the feed from Juneau.
17:42 Chris Neil 1 (Wade Redden, Shaun Van Allen)
Redden’s shot is tipped in front as Jose Theodore has little-to-no chance at making the stop.
19:54 Petr Schatslivy 1 (power play) (Karek Rachunek, Chris Phillips)
Another tipped shot from the point. This was the killer goal as the Habs never really recovered.
2nd Period
9:17 Chris Phillips 1 (Marian Hossa)
Bad defensive coverage leads to a Sens 2-on-1 and Phillips finishes off a nice pass from Hossa.
14:40 Mike Ribeiro 1 (Richard Zednik, Andrei Markov)
A nifty play by Zednik (sacrificing himself to get the puck to Ribeiro, who is left alone in front and dekes Lalime out completely.
17:05 Daniel Alfredsson 1 (Jason Spezza)
Again, bad defensive coverage by Montreal leads to a Sens goal as Alfredsson walks right in from the right half boards and pockets his first on the campaign.
