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.

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

SENATORS 2, MAPLE LEAFS 1 A fortunate bounce made a huge difference for the Ottawa Senators in the latest round of the Battle of Ontario Saturday night. It doesn’t matter how all that matters is how many and a bounce off centre Shane Pinto’s knee that landed in the Toronto Maple Leafs’ net turned out to be the winner in Ottawa’s 2-1 victory at the Canadian Tire Centre.
