The Ottawa Senators take aim at their first winning streak in nearly two months as they play host on Monday night to the Washington Capitals, but theyll have to do it without Jason Spezza and Chris Phillips. wholesale nfl jerseys . Spezza (lower body) and Phillips (foot) are each listed as day-to-day but will miss their second straight games. The Sens picked up just their second victory in six games on Saturday, besting the visiting Boston Bruins by a 4-3 margin to split a home-and-home set. Ottawa was pounded 5-0 in Boston on Friday. Bobby Ryan scored the go-ahead goal for the Sens, finishing off a breakaway with 4:35 to play on a backhander under the crossbar. It came not too long after the Bruins had a potential go-ahead goal waved off when it was ruled Jarome Iginla had intentionally kicked the puck into the net. "There werent that many chances in the third," said Ryan. "Truthfully I was just hoping that was going to be the game-winner." Zack Smith, Patrick Wiercioch and Cory Conacher also tallied for the Senators, who got 29 saves from Craig Anderson. The Sens hope to cap December by winning two straight for the first time since a three-game win streak from Nov. 5-9. They can do so by claiming a sixth straight victory over the Capitals. Ottawa notched a 6-4 win at Washington on Nov. 27 in the first of three meetings this season. Ryan scored twice and Anderson made 29 saves as the Caps failed to hold a 3-1 first-period lead. The Sens have won three straight and eight of their past 10 at home versus the Capitals. Washington will play on the road for a second straight night after dropping a 2-1 shootout decision to the Buffalo Sabres on Sunday. Troy Brouwer had a goal for the Capitals, but the Sabres Ryan Miller stopped all six skaters he faced in regulation. Philipp Grubauer, meanwhile, made 16 saves through overtime and turned aside the first five he faced in the tiebreaker before Buffalos Steve Ott blasted a shot over his right shoulder. Washington fell to 1-1-2 in its last four games despite outshooting Buffalo 50-17. "Miller was playing well and we feel like we deserved to win tonight but you encounter some games that just dont go your way, " said Brouwer. Washingtons Alex Ovechkin finished with a season-high 12 shots, but has gone without a goal in three straight for the first time this season.cheap nfl jerseys . Thea Culley, Brienne Stairs and Stephanie Jameson scored for the Canadians (1-1-3), who were already out of contention for a London Olympic berth in the six-country tournament. wholesale jerseys . Erik Karlsson and the Ottawa Senators felt good after their 3-1 defeat of the Washington Capitals on Monday, their first back-to-back victory in 51 days and their first three-game winning streak at the Canadian Tire Centre this season. Canadian Olympic mens hockey coach Mike Babcock announced early Thursday that P.K. Subban and Matt Duchene will be the two skaters sitting out the teams opening game. As well, Mike Smith of the Phoenix Coyotes is the third goalie, meaning he wont be in uniform for the game against Norway at 12 p.m. ET. Carey Price of the Montreal Canadiens gets the call in net, with Roberto Luongo of the Vancouver Canucks the backup netminder. Montreal defenceman SSubban was the Norris Trophy winner as top defenceman in the league last season, but reportedly was passed over for Dan Hamhuis of the Vancouver Canucks. nfl jerseys china. The absence of Duchene, of the Colorado Avalanche, means that Martin St. Louis draws in among the group of forwards. St. Louis, a member of the 2006 Olympic squad, was just added to the team last week as an injury replacement for Tampa Bay Lightning teammate Steven Stamkos. cheap jerseys from china cheap jerseys ' ' '
