=== Ottawa Senators Team Report - March 4 === (My Sportsbook) - Miroslav Satan scored the go-ahead goal on a power play in the third period and Chris Drury added two tallies, as the Buffalo Sabres skated past the Ottawa Senators 4-3 at HSBC Arena. Patrick Lalime stopped 23 shots for Ottawa, which is only 2-4-1 in its last seven road games. Daniel Alfredsson scored twice and Marian Hossa added a tally in the setback. Hossa extended his point streak to six games (3 goals, 4 assists). With 84 points, the Senators are tied with Toronto atop the Northeast Division -- two ahead of Boston. The Sens and Leafs are just two back of Tampa Bay and Philadelphia in the Eastern Conference's overall race. Peter Bondra had a golden opportunity to get the equalizer for Ottawa with under a minute remaining. Sabres goalie Martin Biron, though, made a sprawling glove save at the doorstep to preserve the win. Bondra has two goals in seven games since being obtained from Washington. The Senators will travel to Philadelphia for a showdown with the Flyers on Friday.
