Linus Ullmark made 32 saves and stopped all three shootout tries and Shane Pinto scored a goal and also tallied the shootout winner as the Ottawa Senators handed the Vegas Golden Knights their third straight loss, 4-3, on Wednesday night in Las Vegas.

Jake Sanderson had a goal and two assists, Tim Stutzle and Claude Giroux each had two assists and Drake Batherson also scored a goal for Ottawa, which moved into a tie for second place in the Atlantic Division with the Boston Bruins with the win.

It was the third victory in four games of a season-long seven-game road trip for the Senators, all of which have been decided by one goal.

Jack Eichel scored the 250th goal of his career and Mark Stone, back after missing 16 games with a wrist injury, and Brett Howden also scored for Vegas. Akira Schmid finished with 20 saves.

Ullmark, who stopped a breakaway try by Eichel late in the third period to help force overtime, stopped tries by Pavel Dorofeyev, Eichel and Mitch Marner in the shootout. Stutzle hit the post in the second round and Pinto followed with the game-winner in the third round, circling in from the left side and ripping a wrist shot past Schmid's glove side.

Ottawa needed just 51 seconds to take a 1-0 lead when Pinto scored on the first shot of the game, a sharp-angled shot from the right corner near the goal-line that scooted under Schmid's left pad.

The Senators extended the lead to 2-0 at the 13:04 mark on a power-play goal by Sanderson, who one-timed a shot from inside the blue line through traffic past Schmid's blocker side.

Vegas cut the lead to 2-1 on Howden's first goal in nine games, a backhand shot inside the right post.

Batherson put the Senators back up by two goals just before the end of the period when he cut down the slot, took a pass from Stutzle and roofed a shot past Schmid's glove side. It marked the first time this season that the Golden Knights allowed three goals in a first period.

Eichel made it 3-2 early in the second period when he backhanded in an Ivan Barbashev pass inside the right post.

Vegas tied it early in the third period on a power-play goal by Stone, whose cross-crease pass caromed into the net off Stutzle's skate.--Field Level Media
