Purcell’s late goal wasn’t enough.

Tyler Johnson scored twice in the third period  and Teddy Purcell cut the Ottawa lead to one with just under two minutes to go in regulation, but the comeback fell short, as the Lightning lost to the Senators 5-3 today.

Mathieu Garon was pulled during an awful first period where he allowed three goals on just 11 shots. Cedrick Desjardins played well  in relief, stopping all but one of 19 shots. (Photo/Susan Ferlita)

Martin St. Louis and Steven Stamkos were each -3 with only one shot on goal.
