OTTAWA -- Home sweet home. Cody Ceci grew up in Orleans in the east end of Ottawa about 30 minutes from Canadian Tire Centre. He played junior hockey with the Ottawa 67s and Monday night he scored his first NHL goal in overtime as the Ottawa Senators beat the St. Louis Blues 3-2. Ceci recovered a clearing attempt by the Blues and sent a wrist shot towards the St. Louis goal that beat Brian Elliot at 3:59 of the extra period. "I had probably a better opportunity right before that with a slapshot with a pretty open look but it didnt go as high up as I wanted it to," Ceci said of a shot seconds before his goal. "Next thing I know I get the puck at the blue-line and theres a lot of traffic crossing in front of the goalie. I just kind of floated it through and it found the net. Ill definitely remember this. "Its a special moment, it couldnt have happened at a better time and Im really happy things worked out the way they did." Ceci has two goals this season with the Binghamton Senators and both of those have also been overtime winners. Jean Gabriel Pageau and Bobby Ryan scored in regulation for the Senators (14-15-6), who picked up points for the fifth time in their past six games. They only time they have been held pointless during that time was a 5-2 loss to the Los Angeles Kings on Saturday. Chris Stewart had both goals for the Blues (22-6-4) and both came late in the second period and both were set up by Ottawa native Derek Roy. Roy also took a hooking penalty in overtime but the Senators were unable to take advantage of the four-on-three. Ryan scored a highlight-reel goal on a pass from Kyle Turris, who put the puck on Ryans tape from 40 feet away, right in front of the St. Louis goal. Ryan cut in front, went to his backhand and beat Elliott to tie the game 2-2. It was also the only goal of the third period and sent the game to overtime. "We feel much better with the way we played. We played a very good opponent in back-to-back games. The game against L.A. didnt turn out near as good as this one did, but I thought we responded," Senators coach Paul MacLean said. "Our completion level and our commitment to playing without the puck and playing the game hard was much better and at a much higher level. "The good news for us is that we did it and now we have to come back and get prepared to do it again and that starts tomorrow at practice." Goaltending played a key role throughout the game as former Senator Elliott duelled with Ottawas Robin Lehner. Each made some big saves, especially through the first two periods. "Its not the way you want to lose a game. We all kind of made mistakes but I thought we battled hard to get back. Its a tough way to lose," Elliott said. "We got a point but weve got to answer right back against San Jose at home tomorrow." Pageau beat Elliott early in the game as he found the back of the net over the Blues goalies glove. Ryan set up the play from behind the net, finding Pageau in the slot. That goal at 3:37 of the first stood up as the only goal until just 3:10 remained in the second when Stewart scored his first of two goals. Roy made a long breakout pass to Stewart, who slid a backhand along the ice and through the legs of Lehner at the end of a breakaway. With just 12 seconds remaining in the second, Brendan Morrows miscue led to Stewarts go-ahead goal. While behind the net, Morrow fanned on a pass attempt out front but the puck went directly to Roy at the side of the goal. Roys no-look backhand pass was met with no hesitation as Stewart delivered a one-timer to the far side past Lehner for a 2-1 St. Louis lead. "They played really hard in the first period but I thought the way we played in the second was one of the best road periods we played all year," said Blues coach Ken Hitchcock. "We really took it to them and at times overwhelmed them with our forecheck, so I was really happy with the point."
