On Oscars night, the Ottawa Senators had an award-winning effort of their own.
Led by a best picture performance from top goaltender Craig Anderson along with a two-point effort from captain Erik Karlsson in a supporting role, the Senators scored an all-important 2-1 victory over the Florida Panthers Sunday night at the BB&T Center.
While Anderson moved his record in this building to 13-8-5 in 26 starts against the Panthers with 27 stops, forwards Kyle Turris and Zack Smith scored for the Senators on 33 shots the club fired at goaltender Jamies Reimer while only Jonathan Marchessault replied for Florida.
