STOCKHOLM, Sweden — This was hardly a routine win for Daniel Alfredsson.

Playing an NHL regular season game in his native Sweden and skating off with his Ottawa Senators teammates after a satisfying victory could be a once-in-a-lifetime event.

“This is an experience that I’ll always remember and which I’m going to rank among the highlights in my career,” Alfredsson said after helping the Senators to a 3-1 win over the Pittsburgh Penguins Sunday.
