After they blew a lead in Game 1, things did not look good for the Ottawa Senators heading into the third period of Game 2.
The Sens found themselves down 3-1 heading to the final frame after allowing three goals in the second period, which included a shorthanded goal. However, Ottawa came out flying in the third period and managed to put together two quick goals in a 2:20 span to force overtime.
In the extra frame, Dion Phaneuf ended the game with his first of the postseason to give the Sens some new life in the postseason. With Ottawa putting together a huge comeback victory on home ice, you can bet fans in the Nation’s Capital were loving it.
Phaneuf was in on both of the goals in the third period and came through with the game-winner. Game 3 will go Monday night in Boston.
