BUFFALO, N.Y. (AP) - Joseph Corvo never scored a bigger goal, and the Ottawa Senators have never been in such an advantageous position in the playoffs. Believe it, these Senators are for real. Corvo's bouncing shot skipped in at 4:58 of the second overtime, giving Ottawa a 4-3 win over the stunned and suddenly silenced Buffalo Sabres in Game 2 of the Eastern Conference finals on Saturday night.
The goal gave Ottawa a 2-0 series lead heading home for Games 3 and 4 on Monday and Wednesday, and marks the first time the Senators have won the first two games of a series.
"It's obviously the biggest goal of my life," the defenseman said of his second career playoff goal. "Just total elation when it went in. It was obviously just a great moment, something I'll always remember."
