Sabres Kick Sens In The Groin

  

This is why the Stanley Cup playoffs rule!

Ottawa was up over Buffalo 5-4 late....verrrrrry late....in Game 1 of their Conference Semifinal series.  With 1:47 remaining in the game, the Sabres Derek Roy scores a SHORTHANDED GOAL to tie the thing up.  Amazing.

Then, just 20 seconds later.....with the Sabres still a man down....the Senators Brian Smolinski fires one in for the go-ahead goal.  Sens now lead 6-5 with just 1:23 left.

So....in a span of 2:05 of game time....four goals were scored,
