PHILADELPHIA, PA -- Alexei Zhamnov had a goal and an assist to help the
Philadelphia Flyers down the Ottawa Senators, 5-3, on Friday in a game that
featured a league-record 419 penalty minutes. Zhamnov, who extended his point-
scoring streak to six games, helped Kim Johnsson establish a 4-1 cushion on the
power play early in the second period and netted his 10th goal of the season
6:54 into the final stanza. Mark Recchi, who got into a fight with Ottawa's
Brian Smolinski late in the third, tallied his team-leading 25th goal and

fourth goal in nine games for Ottawa, which lost consecutive games for the
first time since February 3.
