MONTREAL -- Kyle Turris scored 34 seconds into overtime to give the Ottawa Senators a 2-1 win against the Montreal Canadiens at Bell Centre on Tuesday.
Turris took a pass from Mike Hoffman and scored on Montreal goalie Mike Condon for his eighth goal on the first shot in overtime.
Jean-Gabriel Pageau scored a shorthanded goal in the second, and Craig Anderson made 36 saves for Ottawa (6-4-2), which is 5-1-0 on the road.
Dale Weise scored a power-play goal for the Canadiens (11-2-1), who had won their first five games at home.
Condon made 25 saves in his first loss in five starts, his third in a row with Carey Price sidelined for a week because of a lower-body injury.
Right wing Mark Stone, Ottawa's leading scorer, served the first game of a two-game suspension for his hit to the head of Detroit Red Wings forward Landon Ferraro on Saturday.
Montreal defenseman P.K. Subban misfired his one-timer attempt on a pass back to the right point on the play that led to Pageau's goal.
With Senators defenseman Cody Ceci serving a high-sticking penalty, Pageau picked up the loose puck and drove straight down the ice to beat Condon with a shot between the legs for his second shorthanded goal.
Pageau also scored a shorthanded goal against Condon in a 3-1 loss to the Canadiens on Oct. 11.
Weise tied it and got credit for his seventh goal at 6:13 when he converted a passing play that began with Montreal's David Desharnais regaining a puck along the boards.
Desharnais passed the puck back to the left point to defenseman Andrei Markov. Alex Galchenyuk took Markov's cross-ice pass and fed the puck to Weise, who flubbed his shot but had the puck bounce up and off his legs on the way into the net.
Each team had an apparent goal disallowed.
Canadiens center Tomas Plekanec appeared to have opened the scoring at 14:24 of the first, but his goal was immediately waved off by referee Chris Lee.
Montreal coach Michel Therrien used his coach's challenge against the on-ice ruling that Canadiens right wing Brendan Gallagher made incidental contact with Anderson, but Lee's video review confirmed his call.
Ottawa was denied an opportunity to take the lead in the third. Referee Garrett Rank immediately signaled no-goal at 4:55 because he had blown his whistle before Alex Chiasson jammed in the loose puck between Condon's pads.
