From Associated Press

They should put (crowd) as the assist after Randy Cunneyworth’s second goal for the Senators on Sunday, but even that wasn’t enough to beat Pittsburgh, which won, 4-3, at Ottawa.

Cunneyworth had pushed the puck barely over the goal line, but the goal light didn’t go on and the game continued for another 3:06.

Replays appeared on arena televisions, and fans chanted for referee Bill McCreary to review the play. When play was stopped because of a penalty, he did, ruled the goal that cut the score to 4-3 and put the 3:06 back on the clock.
