OTTAWA – Martin Havlat and Peter Schaefer each scored two goals and Marian Hossa had three assists in the Ottawa Senators’ 6-5 victory over the Pittsburgh Penguins on Thursday night.

Daniel Alfredsson and Josh Langfeld also scored to help Ottawa move within a point of Toronto for the Eastern Conference lead. The Senators improved to 13-2-4 in their last 19 games.

Milan Kraft, Drake Berehowsky, Tom Kostopoulos, Brian Holzinger and Dick Tarnstrom scored for Pittsburgh, which lost its fifth in a row.

Kostopoulos hit the left post with a shot in the final seconds after Tarnstrom’s power-play goal drew the Penguins within one with 2:22 remaining.

Pittsburgh, which has allowed a league-high 178 goals and is last in the NHL with 30 points, has just three wins in its last 19 games (3-14-1-1). The Penguins were 3-for-6 with the man advantage.

Ottawa, which went 2-for-10 on the power play, scored on six of 23 shots against rookie Marc-Andre Fleury, who was replaced by Jean-Sebastien Aubin for the third period. Fleury was making his second start since returning from a stint with the Canadian national junior team.

Hossa, Alfredsson and Senators defenseman Wade Redden were added to the Eastern Conference roster for the All-Star game in St. Paul, Minn., on Feb. 8.

Pittsburgh, which has lost 13-time All-Star Mario Lemieux for the season to a hip injury, had no players added, leaving the Penguins without an All-Star representative for just the second time in franchise history, and first time in 25 years.

Kraft opened the scoring with an unassisted goal 8:49 in. Alfredsson tied it at 13:02, but Pittsburgh regained a 2-1 lead on Berehowsky’s power-play goal 1:05 later at 14:07.

Havlat scored a pair of power-play goals before the end of the period to put Ottawa up 3-2. He scored his 13th goal of the season when his centering pass went in off Fleury’s blocker at 16:40. Havlat got his second goal in 1:34 for his 14th when he finished off a fine passing play with Hossa and Radek Bonk to the Senators ahead for good at 18:14.

Schaefer scored 19 seconds into the second, but Kostopoulos deflected Berehowsky’s point shot at 9:47 for a goal that was allowed to stand after a video review determined the puck was not struck by a high stick.

Schaefer got his second goal of the game – his 11th of the season – when he drove the slot to beat Fleury at 16:44.

Langfeld got his third goal with 33 seconds left in the third.

Holzinger drew Pittsburgh to 6-4 with a short-handed effort 2:28 into the third.

Notes: The Penguins also had no representative in 1979, when the NHL suspended its usual All-Star format to play a “Challenge Cup” series against the Soviet Union. … Aubin stopped all eight shots he faced. … It was Schaefer’s 300th career regular-season game.
