Miroslav Satan scored his second goal of the game at 10:35 of the second overtime period Friday night to give the Buffalo Sabres a 3-2 victory over the Ottawa Senators at Kanata, Canada.

The victory gave the Sabres a 2-0 lead in the best-of-seven Eastern Conference quarterfinal playoff series.

After a turnover in the neutral zone, Jason Woolley took a shot from the left point that Damian Rhodes kicked out with his left pad. The rebound came out to Satan, who was standing alone to the right of the net. Joe Juneau, returning from a concussion, got the puck to Woolley on the winning goal.
