OTTAWA (AP) -- Jason Spezza scored twice, including his 200th regular-season goal, to lead the Ottawa Senators to a 4-3 win over the Carolina Hurricanes on Sunday night. Spezza reached the milestone with his second goal of the game on a power play late in the first period. His first tally, a highlight-reel effort 55 seconds in, ended a personal 11-game goal drought. David Runblad got his first NHL goal, Zack Smith also scored and Craig Anderson made 34 saves for Ottawa, which is on a 4-1-1 run. The Senators, who closed out a six-game trip Friday with a 6-3 loss in Pittsburgh, begin a three-game trip Tuesday in Winnipeg. Eric Staal and Alexei Ponikarovsky scored in the third as Carolina twice closed to within one. Patrick Dwyer also scored for the Hurricanes. Cam Ward made 21 saves.
