#Sens vs. #Habs: 10 tweets that sum up Game 3 in Ottawa
Montreal wins Game 3, 2-1, in overtime thanks to 2 goals from Dale Weise
The Ottawa Senators and Montreal Canadiens renewed acquaintances in Ottawa on Sunday evening for Game 3, which easily became the most physical game of the best-of-seven series.
Before the game started, Ottawa honoured assistant coach Mark Reeds, who died from cancer this past week.
Touching moment at the start of the Sens/Habs game in honour of assistant coach Mark Reeds. Seeing Dave Cameron in tears nearly made me cry.
—@DustinHallPhotoThen, even before the puck dropped, Ottawa fans didn't exactly welcome P.K. Subban with open arms after his slash to Mark Stone's wrist in Game 1.
The 'P.K. sucks' chants are already raining down from the upper decks <a href="https://twitter.com/hashtag/Habs?src=hash">#Habs</a> <a href="https://twitter.com/hashtag/Sens?src=hash">#Sens</a>
—@DGelevanChris Neil, playing his first game since Feb. 14, was expected to play a physical role. He definitely did.

—@SenatorsThe hitting was also contagious as even Ottawa captain Erik Karlsson threw his weight around. For those who don't know, he's not known for that.

—@myregularfaceHowever, there was some concern the hit was an illegal check to the head.
Karlsson hit on Beaulieu was definitely a head shot <a href="https://twitter.com/hashtag/GoHabsGo?src=hash">#GoHabsGo</a>
—@ndnopieHockey Night in Canada colour commentator Mike Johnson disputed that argument, though.
Karlsson didn't pick the head, played thru the body, it is incidental contact with the head, not illegal <a href="https://twitter.com/hashtag/Good?src=hash">#Good</a> hit <a href="https://t.co/hNs7L4EPqE">https://t.co/hNs7L4EPqE</a>
—@mike_p_johnsonIt was Subban who tried to throw a check on Karlsson in the first period when the Senators capitalized, as Clarke MacArthur opened the scoring.

—@GoHabs_NationThis was the most physical game of the series, by far, and CBC Sports gathered some of the checks.
If you like hard-hitting hockey, the Sens are laying a bruising on the Habs tonight: <a href="http://t.co/Cls6qrq8gU">http://t.co/Cls6qrq8gU</a> <a href="http://t.co/6uV9gnBNJh">pic.twitter.com/6uV9gnBNJh</a>
—@cbcsportsAfter a strong first period, Ottawa played with fire as they were heavily out-shot by Montreal. They also took several penalties.
Eventually, the Habs capitalized on a Dale Weise goal with just more than five minutes left.
Fourth line for <a href="https://twitter.com/hashtag/Habs?src=hash">#Habs</a> does it again. Tie game. <a href="https://twitter.com/hashtag/cbcott?src=hash">#cbcott</a>
—@SeguinSportsGame 3 went to overtime, the second straight game in the series to do so, and Weise did it again almost nine minutes in. Montreal now leads the series, 3-0, and they can sweep Ottawa on Wednesday.
Dale Weise again. <a href="https://twitter.com/hashtag/Habs?src=hash">#Habs</a> in the driver seat up 3-0 in the series. Have to admit they have been the better team in this series so far. <a href="https://twitter.com/hashtag/cbcott?src=hash">#cbcott</a>
