 BUFFALO, N.Y. (AP) - Joseph Corvo scored with a bouncing 40-foot shot 4:58 into the second overtime, lifting the Ottawa Senators to a 4-3 win over the Buffalo Sabres in Game 2 of the Eastern Conference finals on Saturday night.
Ottawa overcame its own history — winning the first two games of a series for the first time — and fought off the disappointment of Daniel Briere's tying goal with 5.8 seconds left in regulation that forced overtime.
Daniel Alfredsson, Wade Redden and Mike Fisher also scored for the Senators, who improved to 10-2 this postseason and moved within two wins of their first trip to the Stanley Cup finals. Ottawa pulled out the victory after spotting the Sabres a 2-0 lead 7 minutes in.
