OTTAWA, Ontario (AP) β€” Veteran goalie Craig Anderson will start over Andrew Hammond for the Ottawa Senators in Game 3 of their Eastern Conference playoff series against Montreal on Sunday.

Coach Dave Cameron called it a “coach’s decision” to put in Anderson as the series switches to Ottawa after a pair of losses with Hammond in goal in Montreal.

Cameron also expects to insert veteran forward Chris Neil into the third line in place of Alex Chiasson. Neil hasn’t played a game since Feb. 14.
