OTTAWA, Nov. 17 (UPI) -- Mike Fisher notched a pair of goals and Pascal Leclaire was dependable in the nets, leading Ottawa to a 3-2 win over Toronto Tuesday.

Fisher's second goal late in the second period proved to be the game winner. It came only 3:07 after Milan Michalek put in a power-play tally for the Senators to tie the game at 2-2.

Meanwhile, Leclaire turned aside 30-of-32 Maple Leafs shots for the Senators, including 15 in the third period, as he made Ottawa's slim lead hold up under a furious Toronto assault. The Maple Leafs pulled goalie Vesa Toskala with 59 seconds to play but couldn't dent Leclaire.

The Senators got two assists each from Alexandre Picard, Chris Campoli and Alex Kovalev.

Phil Kessel and Niklas Hagman each scored for Toronto, which dropped its fourth straight game.
