OTTAWA, Ontario -- The Ottawa Senators could overlook their sloppy start thanks to a strong finish.Kyle Turris scored in overtime, lifting the Senators over the Carolina Hurricanes 2-1 on Tuesday night.Dion Phaneuf also scored for the Senators, who were playing their first of ten home games this month. Craig Anderson made 32 saves.Jaccob Slavin scored the lone goal for the Hurricanes, and Cam Ward stopped 30 shots.Ottawa was coming off a nine-day, three-game trip that culminated with an emotional 2-0 win in Edmonton on Sunday night after learning Andersons wife, Nicholle, had been diagnosed with cancer.Its beyond words the way that hes playing right now with the circumstances and what hes going through with his wife, Phaneuf said. Its incredible. Hes an inspiration to all of us, I will tell you that. Hes just incredible to be doing what hes doing for our team right now with what hes going through.To no surprise, the Senators lacked energy and had a slow start but managed to regroup and -- thanks to Anderson -- hung in despite some sloppy stretches.Ottawa coach Guy Boucher expected a slow start after the lengthy road trip and the emotional time his team went through supporting the Andersons, but was pleased with how his team responded after the first period.I was so impressed with how the players battled to get that emotion back and they did it in every possible way, Ottawa coach Guy Boucher said. I thought we really played good in the second, third and the overtime and I believe we deserved it at that point.Tied 1-1 to start the third, both teams had a couple of good chances, but Ward and Anderson could see most of the shots and made the stops.I liked the effort, I liked the execution, Hurricanes coach Bill Peters said. I thought both teams made a push at certain times. Penalty kill was good, could have executed a little better at some offensive situations, but I liked the effort (Tuesday).The Senators struggled mightily in the first period, but thankfully Anderson was solid when the Hurricanes outshot Ottawa 16-5 and controlled much of the action.Carolina scored on its first shot after some poor defensive coverage from the Senators allowed Slavin easy entry from center ice.Ottawa tied it at the 13-minute mark of the first when Phaneufs shot from the point beat Ward low glove side.The Senators were without Mark Stone for the third period as the winger suffered an upper body injury.Carolinas Victor Rask ended his eight-game point streak (four goals, six assists), and Jeff Skinners five-game point streak (four goals, five assists) also ended.Game notes D Thomas Chabot and G Matt OConnor were a healthy scratch for the Senators. Carolinas Ryan Murphy played his first game after suffering a lower body injury in early October that kept him out of the lineup.UP NEXTHurricanes: Play at Nashville Predators on Saturday night.Senators: Host the Canucks on Thursday night.

YAS MARINA, Abu Dhabi -- McLarens new executive director Zak Brown says flexibility will be the key to achieving his primary goal of bringing a title sponsor to the team by 2018.The American business man is due to join the company next month and will work alongside current COO Jonathan Neale to shape the direction of the team. Brown will focus more on the commercial responsibilities while Neales engineering background makes him better suited to the challenges the team faces on track.McLaren has not had a title sponsor on its car since Vodafone left in 2013, with the teams former CEO Ron Dennis famously unwilling to budge on the teams rate card. Brown says the global economy has made sponsors hard to come by and admits that achieving his goal of a title sponsor by 2018 is not going to be easy.Its a difficult environment for all of us, he said on his first appearance with the team in Abu Dhabi. Red Bull had a title sponsor, they dont now, its themselves. Ferrari go about things a little bit differently and then obviously Mercedes has been fortunate enough to have a title partner for some time.I think there are some serious head winds out there in this world -- whether its Brexit or the US election -- and so its a difficult environment. Its not an inexpensive sponsorship but it is great value and global, so when you break it down its money very well spent.But Ive not been on the inside, so I dont know how many near misses there have been and weve had aa couple of close opportunities.dddddddddddd So its hard, its very hard. By no means do I have a magic wand and think that having a title sponsor in 2018 is going to be an easy feat.Asked what he could bring to McLaren to change the situation, Brown said the most important factor is to be flexible enough to give sponsors return on investment.Ive got 22 years of experience of working with corporate partners, so I have got a very good understanding of what they want and how they operate and that is different today to how it was five, ten, 15, 20 years ago.Measurement is critical and return on investment is critical and then we have more competition among other sports and its going to be about understanding the market place and being flexible to a potential partners needs. So flexibility will be key.Brown said he would look to bring new names into the sport but also said there is also the possibility of poaching sponsors from rival teams.Im positive we are going to bring in new partners, we have for the last 22 years in motorsport and the last 12 in Formula One. Id like to think the well hasnt run dry in our talent in doing that, but its a competitive sport on and off the track so everyone at times talks to each others sponsors and its not unusual to see sponsors move. I dont think that will be any different moving forward. ' ' '
