VANCOUVER, British Columbia -- Ryan Dzingel might have found a home on the Ottawa Senators second line.The second-year forward had the first two-goal game of his career and Craig Anderson made 22 saves Tuesday night as Ottawa defeated the Vancouver Canucks 3-0.Dzingel suited up alongside Derick Brassard and Bobby Ryan after spending the first five games of the season on the fourth line, and the speedy wing made the most of his opportunity.It was easy to play with those guys. Theyre great NHLers and great people, Dzingel said. Two good friends, and to be honest I just had a lot of fun out there -- just trying not to get in their way.I was proud to play with those two guys.The 24-year-old split time between Ottawa and the AHL last season, registering three goals and six assists in 30 NHL games. He already has four goals and two assists through six games this season.The whole summer I didnt just focus on just making the team, said the native of Wheaton, Illinois. I came to make a difference. My mindset was not to just be good enough, it was to be better.Dzingel said moving up the lineup would have been more difficult if he didnt already have great relationships off the ice with both Ryan and Brassard. He showed up early to training camp and lived with Ryan for a time before moving into Brassards house once the season started.There arent any nerves when you know how good they are, Dzingel said. I just had to play my game.Anderson entered play with a 3.66 goals-against average and an .866 save percentage but was flawless as Ottawa (4-2-0) opened a three-game road trip through western Canada with a solid defensive effort that was capped by Jean-Gabriel Pageaus empty-net goal.I felt as the game went on I was progressively getting better, said Anderson, who picked up his first shutout of the season and the 34th of his career. The way we played defensively allowed me to only have to make one or two big saves and when thats the case, usually you can have a pretty good game.Ryan Miller made 25 stops for Vancouver (4-2-1), which has lost three straight and lost at home for the first time.They were hard on the puck, Miller said. We started to make some adjustments. You have to be ready for that kind of stuff.After opening the scoring in the first period, Dzingel doubled Ottawas lead at 2:12 of the third, taking a slick no-look feed from Ryan in front and beating Miller.Since Day 1 at every practice and every game hes shown that he wants to be here, that hes ready to survive in the NHL before contributing offensively, first-year Senators head coach Guy Boucher said. He came here with the right attitude of: `Im staying here, Ill block shots, Ill kill penalties, Ill backcheck, Ill do whatever I need to do to be on this team and pay the price. Hes getting all the rewards.Ottawa had surrendered nine goals in third periods coming into Tuesday, and Anderson had to be sharp on a shot off the stick of Bo Horvat from the slot with about 12 minutes left in regulation.Anderson then stopped Sven Baertschi on a breakaway -- one of just three Vancouver shots in the third -- with six minutes to go to preserve the shutout before Pageau scored his first with Miller on the bench for an extra skater.I think our players are absolutely buying in, said Boucher, who is still in the process of implementing his system. I love the willingness to pay attention to small details and how to be unselfish.Ottawa carried the play for much of the first period and led 1-0 on Dzingels third of the season at 7:38 after the Senators jumped on a Canucks turnover in the neutral zone. Miller stopped Brassards initial shot on a 2-on-2 rush with Vancouvers forwards in the middle of a change, but Dzingel was right there for the rebound.Game notes Troy Stecher made his NHL debut for Vancouver after being called up from the AHL on Monday. The 22-year-old signed with the organization as a undrafted college free agent in the offseason, and took the place of Christopher Tanev (lower-body injury) alongside Alexander Edler on Vancouvers top defense pairing. ... Ottawa snapped a seven-game losing streak at Rogers Arena dating to 2004. ... Also missing for Vancouver were Fs Alexandre Burrows (neck) and Derek Dorsett (shoulder). Jayson Megna was recalled from the AHL and suited up for his first game with the club on the fourth line.UP NEXT:Senators: Visit Calgary on Friday.Canucks: host Edmonton on Friday and Washington on Saturday, but after that play just seven of their next 21 at home.

TORONTO -- Team USA coach John Tortorella on Thursday expressed his disappointment at former U.S. players --?including Pittsburgh Penguins forward Phil Kessel -- taking shots at the team after it failed to advance in the World Cup of Hockey.To me, its a little self-serving, and quite honestly, it doesnt make USA Hockey look any better either, Tortorella said of the criticism. Its self-serving, and I think the people that are doing it, it really doesnt help them either.Kessel, who was on both the silver-medal U.S. team at the 2010 Vancouver Olympics and the team that didnt medal at 2014 Games, was left off the roster for the World Cup of Hockey after a strong season with the Stanley Cup champion Penguins.He took to Twitter after Tuesdays 4-2 loss to Team Canada that dropped the U.S. to 0-2 and kept them from?advancing out of the three-game preliminary round.?I just wish he didnt say anything because it makes him look bad, Tortorella said. I dont want him to look bad. And the other guys? Its so easy. Its so easy to start chucking dirt on us when things are going bad. But when theyve been playing in the program, for the whole USA Hockey, it just does not look good. And we have some work to do to get some respect back.dddddddddddd That stuff doesnt help.Team USA was outscored 11-5 in three losses and finished the preliminary schedule with a 4-3 defeat to the Czech Republic, which also did not advance.Tortorella saying Team USAs problem simply was improper execution.We just did not, from the staff right on through, did not get the job done, Tortorella said. You need to accept that, and we need to take the medicine.But Im not listening to people talk about different things when honestly they dont have a clue. You have to take your medicine. Im making no excuses for us. I let a lot of people down. Thats a responsibility on me. But some of the stuff out there as far as picking apart ... my God, stop it.Team USA general manager Dean Lombardi said he simply wished he had more time with his 23-man roster to build the chemistry of a winner.I told them I wish I had this group for a longer period of time because I know we could have built that culture, said Lombardi, who has won two Stanley Cup titles as general manager of the Los Angeles Kings. But it didnt happen. ' ' '
