Preview: Canadiens at Senators

Three games does a bitter rivalry make - at least when it comes to the Ottawa Senators and Montreal Canadiens. The Eastern Conference first-round series between the Canadian neighbors has quickly devolved into a brawl-filled, vitriol-laced hate fest following a brutal Game 3 in which the seventh-seeded Senators pummeled Montreal physically and on the scoreboard. Ottawa can take a commanding 3-1 lead in the best-of-seven series when it hosts the Canadiens in Tuesday's Game 4.

Senators 4, Canadiens 2

Senators 4, Canadiens 2: Craig Anderson made 48 saves as visiting Ottawa scored three goals in the third period to rally past second-seeded Montreal in Game 1 of the Eastern Conference first-round series. Defenseman Marc Methot gave the seventh-seeded Senators a 3-2 lead 5:20 into the session - and just 1:53 after rookie Jakob Silfverberg tied the game. Guillaume Latendresse added an insurance goal and defenseman Erik Karlsson opened the scoring in the first period.

Cherry repeats opinion he doesn't think women should be in men's locker-rooms

TORONTO - Don Cherry hasn't changed his mind — he still doesn't believe women should be in men's locker-rooms. The CBC hockey commentator reiterated his opinion Wednesday during his Coach's Corner segment of "Hockey Night in Canada." Cherry defended himself as the first coach in a major sports league to let women in the locker-room, which he did in the 1970s when former New York Times reporter Robin Herman covered the Boston Bruins. But Cherry said he wouldn't do that if he were coaching today.

Men's locker-room no place for women says hockey commentator Don Cherry

TORONTO - Don Cherry says the men's locker-room is no place for a woman. The outspoken CBC hockey broadcaster made the comments during his weekly Coach's Corner segment of "Hockey Night in Canada" on Saturday night while discussing the controversy around Chicago Blackhawks defenceman Duncan Keith. Keith was criticized earlier in the week after delivering what some considered a sexist post-game putdown to a female radio reporter in Vancouver.

Thompson was reacting to the continued flak over Cherry's comments Saturday on his "Coach's Corner" segment of "Hockey Night in Canada."
