OTTAWA (AP) - If the Ottawa Senators keep scoring unusual goals on Martin Brodeur, they'll go as deep in the playoffs as they've ever been. Dany Heatley set up Daniel Alfredsson's goal, then scored unassisted, leading Ottawa to a 3-2 win over the New Jersey Devils on Wednesday night for a 3-1 edge in their playoff series.
Heatley, the Senators' two-time 50-goal scorer, took a shot from the right boards that struck Brodeur's right skate and went between the goalie's pads late in the second period to give Ottawa a 2-1 edge.
"Honestly, that one I was trying to hit (Jason) Spezza off the backpost and got a good bounce," Heatley said. "But it's definitely been part of our game plan to get pucks to the net whenever we can."
