@cp24breakingnews: Simon Benoit wasn’t sure how to react. The Maple Leafs defenceman had just flung a puck on goal through traffic in overtime. He found himself in the middle of a wild celebration seconds later. Benoit scored at 1:19 of the extra period Thursday as Toronto topped the Ottawa Senators 3-2 to take a commanding 3-0 lead in the teams’ first-round playoff series — and move within one victory of another triumph in the Battle of Ontario. “I just lifted both of my arms and didn’t move,” the gritty blueliner said following the biggest goal of his life. “I saw all those guys coming towards me. Good feeling.” #cp24 #news #toronto
