Jakob Silfverberg's goal in the second round of the shootout lifted the Ottawa Senators to a 2-1 victory over the New Jersey Devils on Monday at Prudential Center. After the first three shooters came up empty, Silfverberg skated in and ripped a wrister high over the glove of New Jersey goaltender Martin Brodeur. Bobby Butler had a chance to keep the Devils alive at the other end, but his wrister missed the net and the Senators escaped with the victory. Silfverberg added an assist on Daniel Alfredsson's game-tying goal in the third period, while Ben Bishop stopped 30-of-31 shots and all three shooters in the shootout to help Ottawa put the brakes on a two- game skid. Stephen Gionta scored the lone New Jersey goal and Brodeur made 29 saves for the Devils, who have lost two straight and three of their last four.

Final Score: Philadelphia 7, NY Islanders 0

Uniondale, NY (Sports Network) - Claude Giroux scored two goals and had one assist and Jakub Voracek had four assists as the Philadelphia Flyers continued their success against the NY Islanders en route to picking up a much-needed, 7-0, road victory on Monday. Danny Briere also had two goals and an assist for the Flyers, who ended a two- game skid and won on the road for the seventh straight time in this series. Matt Read scored one goal and finished with two assists in the victory. Ilya Bryzgalov, playing in his 400th NHL game, made 19 saves for his 30th career shutout. Evgeni Nabokov allowed all seven goals on 25 shots for New York, which saw its two-game winning streak come to an abrupt end.
