Shane Pinto scored the tiebreaking goal midway through the third period and the Ottawa Senators beat the Toronto Maple Leafs 2-1

Pinto broke a 1-1 tie at 10:47. Matthew Highmore’s initial sharp-angled shot from the right side of the net deflected high off the stick of Maple Leafs forward Mitch Marner, and Highmore then batted the puck out of the air to the left post, where it deflected in off of Pinto.

Losing a low-scoring game to the Ottawa Senators is quite a feat these days. But a strange goal midway through the third period led to the unusual circumstances, Saturday’s 2-1 win for the playoff desperate Sens against the Atlantic Division leaders.
