OTTAWA — Shane Pinto’s shootout winner lifted the Ottawa Senators to a 2-1 win over the New York Islanders on Thursday night. Ridly Greig scored in regulation, while Linus Ullmark made 20 saves for Ottawa (6-2-0). Semyon Varlamov, making his second start of the season, stopped 18 shots. Matias Macelli scored the lone goal for the Islanders (3-3-1). The Islanders’ Adam Pelech took a hooking penalty with 3:08 remaining in overtime. Varlamov made two saves to extend the game and then Dylan Cozens took a tripping penalty catching Pelech as he came out of the box and looked to break in on Ullmark. Bo Horvat had the lone shot on the power play. Trailing 1-0, the Senators tied the game late in the second on a 2-on-1. Warren Foegele broke in and made a cross-ice pass to Greig who beat Varlamov high stick side. New York opened the scoring with 11.2 seconds remaining in the period when Maccelli stripped Pinto of the puck at Ottawa’s blueline, took two strides and wristed a shot past Ullmark. Artem Zub made his season debut Thursday, assisting on Greig’s goal. The Senators defenceman hadn’t played since sustaining a knee injury in Game 1 of the first round of last season’s playoffs.
