MONTREAL, May 10 (UPI) -- Michael Cammalleri scored two goals Monday and the Montreal Canadiens forced a Game 7 in their Eastern Conference semifinal series by downing Pittsburgh 4-3.

Cammalleri got his first goal only 73 seconds into the game and his second came midway through the second period to erase a Penguins lead and pull the Habs into a 2-2 tie.

Jaroslav Spacek's tally on a slap shot from the high slot less than three minutes later put Montreal up for good and Maxim Lapierre provided a much-needed insurance goal midway through the third, enabling the Canadiens to tie the series 3-3.

A decisive Game 7 will be played Wednesday in Pittsburgh.

Jaroslav Halak stopped 37 shots and Andrei Kostitsyn notched two assists for Montreal in the win.

Sidney Crosby had a goal and an assist for the Penguins. Kris Letang and Bill Guerin added goals and Marc-Andre Fleury turned aside 21-of-25 shots in the Pittsburgh loss.
