OTTAWA (AP) -- Marian Hossa had a goal and an assist as the Ottawa Senators broke the game open in the third period and beat the Washington Capitals 5-1 Thursday night.

Radek Bonk, Bryan Smolinski, Daniel Alfredsson and Zdeno Chara also scored for the Senators. Martin Havlat had two assists in his first game since the restricted free agent signed a one-year contract.

Patrick Lalime made 17 saves.

Peter Bondra scored for the Capitals, who are winless in their last six games (0-5-1). Olaf Kolzig stopped 22 shots.

Holding a 2-1 lead at the start of the third, Ottawa scored three goals in the first six minutes of the period. Smolinski started the outburst when he knocked in a rebound off Kolzig's mask.

Kolzig got caught again after giving up another big rebound 1:51 later, leading to Alfredsson's fourth goal of the season.

Washington coach Bruce Cassidy pulled Kolzig after he gave up a goal to Chara at 6:20. Sebastien Charpentier replaced him and stopped 13 shots.

The Capitals took a lead 32 seconds into the game when Bondra scored during a power play.

Robert Lang won the faceoff back to Sergei Gonchar, who passed to Bondra at the point. Bondra beat Lalime with a quick wrist shot for his fourth goal of the season.

Bonk tied it 1-1 at 9:53 when he took a perfect pass from Havlat at the side of the net and tapped the puck by Kolzig.
