BELLEVILLE, ON - The Belleville Senators put up a strong fight in their three-game road trip opener, but fell 4-3 in overtime, to the Hartford Wolf Pack on Saturday night at XL Center.

The only goal of the first came courtesy of Max Guenette, ripping a wrist shot past Dylan Garand from the right circle, while the teams were playing four-on-four at 18:26. The Sens were outshot 13-6 in the frame.

Belleville made it 2-0 less than a minute into the second period, with Orrin Centzzo (recently signed on a professional tryout) capitalizing on a terrible Hartford turnover right in front of their net. But, the Wolf Pack would even things by the end of the period, through goals by Brennan Othmann on the power play and a deflection by Adam Sykora. Shots were 25-12 Hartford after 40 minutes.

Angus Crookshank would put Belleville back in front, with his team-leading sixth of the season at 5:35 of the third, but Othmann's second of the game in the dying minutes would tie the game and force overtime. The Wolf Pack picked up the win with just 41 seconds left in the bonus frame, as Nash slid the game-winner past Kevin Mandolese, following a feed from Mac Hollowell.

Sound Bytes:

Belleville Sens forward Angus Crookshank on his team's performance:

"I thought we played a really good road game. We had a couple of stretches where we were kind of getting hemmed in, but that's bound to happen. For us to kind of hang in there, it was a really good road game and I think we deserved better, quite frankly."

Belleville Sens forward Orrin Centazzo on his first career AHL goal:

"I wish the boys would have got the win, we played well. It felt good. I've got to get my legs under me, but the boys have been helping me out. They welcomed me with open arms and it's been good so far."
