May 1, 2005 - From The AHL
 |
Chris Kelly scored the BSens
only goal. |
Kris Beech and Michel Ouellet scored power-play goals in the
third period to lead Wilkes-Barre/Scranton to a 2-1 win over
Binghamton on Sunday evening, capping an improbable comeback
and giving the Penguins a 4-2 series triumph over the
division champion Senators.
Ouellet buried the
winning goal with 2:44 left in regulation, his second goal
of the series.
Andy Chiodo made 30 saves as the
Penguins won for the fourth straight game after falling into
an 0-2 series hole, becoming the 15th team in AHL history to
come back from that deficit to win a best-of-seven series.
Beech finished with a goal and an assist in Game 6 and
six points in the series.
The loss brought a stunning
and disappointing end to a postseason that held much promise
for the Senators, whose roster included league MVP Jason
Spezza, All-Rookie forward Brandon Bochenski and stand-out
defensemen Brian Pothier and Anton Volchenkov. Not counting
shootout losses, this was the Senators’ first four-game
losing streak of the season.
Chiodo, who played the
final five games of the series after backing up Marc-Andre
Fleury in Game 1, held the Senators’ league-leading offense
to five goals in 15 periods over the last four contests.
