Newark, NJ (Sports Network) - Brian Rolston's power-play goal 1:43 into overtime lifted the New Jersey Devils to a 4-3 win over the Ottawa Senators at Prudential Center.
Dainius Zubrus scored twice, and Jamie Langenbrunner added a power-play marker for New Jersey, which has won two in a row and four of five overall. Scott Clemmensen turned aside 17 shots in the win.
Brendan Bell, Chris Kelly and Nick Foligno each scored once for Ottawa, which fell to 1-4-1 on its season-long eight-game road trip. Alex Auld made 31 saves for the Senators in the loss.
Langenbrunner's tally came with just 3:40 left in the game, tying the contest at 3-3 and sending it to the extra session.
Just 19 seconds into overtime, Ottawa's Chris Phillips was whistled for holding, giving New Jersey a power play. The Senators killed off most of it, but Rolston acquired the puck near the blue line in the center of the ice and rifled a slap shot to the net; the puck went through traffic, then trickled past Auld to give the Devils the win.
Foligno gave Ottawa the lead on the man advantage just 2:10 into the game, but with under a minute left in the first period Zubrus scored the equalizer.
Bell's power-play tally at the 3:50 mark of the second again put Ottawa in front, but Zubrus again evened the game, just past the midway point, and the teams went to the third tied, 2-2.
