| Senators Penguins Playoff Series OTTAWA (CP) - For Sidney Crosby and the rest of the Pittsburgh Penguins' young lineup, the kids were definitely not all right Wednesday night in their playoff debut against the Ottawa Senators. "The positive thing is: the first game is under their belt," Penguins coach Michel Therrien said after the Penguins were taught a lesson by the Senators in a 6-3 loss that left Pittsburgh trailing the best-of-seven Eastern Conference opening-round series 1-0. "A lot of those guys, this was their first game in the NHL playoffs and I didn't feel our team was tight, but I guess they were." Young Penguins taught playoff lessons by Senators in Game 1      |

| Daniel Alfredsson scores twice as Senators beat Pittsburgh 4-2 PITTSBURGH (AP) - One day after allowing a victory to slip away on their home ice, the Ottawa Senators knew doing so again in Pittsburgh might cost them the series. It didn't happen. Daniel Alfredsson scored twice during a second dominating Ottawa second period in as many days. The Senators made this lead stand, taking Pittsburgh's stars and its crowd out of the game for a 4-2 victory Sunday in Game 3 of their first-round series. The Senators seized back home-ice advantage by mostly controlling Pittsburgh's stars and getting two key goals from one of their own in Alfredsson.

| So far against Penguins, history not repeating itself for Senators PITTSBURGH (AP) -With so many postseason failures behind them, so many disappointing swings in momentum and breakdowns in confidence, the Ottawa Senators understand they should never feel comfortable with any Stanley Cup playoffs series lead. The bad memories are too recent and their flops too frequent for them to disregard their past - even as they take a 2-1 lead into Game 4 of their first-round series against Pittsburgh on Tuesday night. The Senators understand those past defeats will never go away. What Ottawa coach Bryan Murray seems determined to instill in them is that nothing that occurred during nine consecutive failed Stanley Cup runs from 1998-2006 has anything to do with this team. "I know there's a lot of comments about the history, but this is a very different hockey team than I had last year. Very different," Murray said Monday. "We play different, we handle things better. ... The history lesson has been learned, I hope and think, and we're just going to be calm and play."
