OTTAWA -- Ottawa Senators defenseman Marc Methot missed the first game of the Stanley Cup Playoffs because of a finger injury and joked when he returned that his game wasn't built on puck-handling anyway.
But Methot made a good skill play to keep the puck inside the New York Rangers blue line seconds before Senators captain Erik Karlsson scored the winning goal in a 2-1 victory in Game 1 of their Eastern Conference Second Round series at Canadian Tire Centre on Thursday.
