Merilainen makes 29 saves in 3rd NHL start to help the Senators beat the
Mammoth 4-2
OTTAWA, Ontario (AP) --- Leevi Merilainen made 29 saves in his third NHL start
and the Ottawa Senators beat the Utah Mammoth 4-2 on Sunday night, with both
teams completing a back-to-back set.
On Saturday, the Mammoth fell 6-2 in Montreal, and the Senators outlasted the
Flyers in 3-2 in overtime in Philadelphia.
Nick Cousins, Ridly Greig, Jordan Spence and Michael Amadio scored for Ottawa
in the opener of a four-game homestand. Amadio has goals in his past four games.
Nick Schmaltz and Clayton Keller scored for Utah, and Vitek Vanecek made 21
saves.
Utah lost its third straight to complete a four-game trip. After an overtime
victory in Buffalo, the Mammoth also lost at Toronto and Montreal.
Utah appeared to tie it at 3 early in the third when Jack McBain, sprawled on
the ice, poked in a loose puck, but the goal was waved off for incidental
contact.
Up next
Mammoth: Host Buffalo on Wednesday night.
Senators: Host Dallas on Tuesday night.
