Charlie Coyle scored the winner in a shootout, Matt Dumba had two goals in regulation and the Minnesota Wild beat Andrew Hammond and the Senators 3-2 on Tuesday night to stop Ottawa's five-game winning streak.

Devan Dubnyk made 31 saves and turned away Mike Hoffman in the fifth round of the shootout to secure Minnesota's 15th victory in 20 games.

Hammond showed why he's called "The Hamburgler" by making 36 saves for Ottawa, but he lost for the first time in six NHL starts. Mika Zibanejad and Bobby Ryan scored for the Senators.

Dumba scored twice in the second to notch his first career two-goal game and give Minnesota a 2-0 lead at 8:05 of the period.

Minnesota had several opportunities to win in regulation during the third, but kept getting turned away by Hammond.

Coyle's winner was his second career shootout goal. Mikko Koivu and Jason Pominville also scored in the tiebreaker.

Ryan and Kyle Turris scored for the Senators in the shootout.
