Senators beat Blackhawks 4-3 for 3rd straight win
CHICAGO — Mike Condon was 10 years old the last time Ottawa got a win in Chicago. Yup, it had been that long.
Condon made 23 saves, Derick Brassard and Tom Pyatt scored 10 seconds apart during Ottawa’s three-goal second period, and the Senators beat the Blackhawks 4-3 on Tuesday night for their third consecutive victory.
Bobby Ryan added a goal and an assist as Ottawa held on for its first win at the United Center since March 28, 2001, stopping a seven-game road losing streak against Chicago. Dion Phaneuf scored a power-play goal, and Kyle Turris had two assists.
“The organization hadn’t won here in 15 years,” coach Guy Boucher said. “So I think it’s something good to celebrate, but we don’t want to celebrate too long. Stay humble and keep working hard and battling.”
