‘Varone factored on both of Buffalo’s goals, both of which came in the opening period on a shaky Andrew Hammond. Slicing toward the Ottawa net, Varone outhustled a pair of defenseman to swat a bouncing puck past Hammond for the 1-0 lead. A little over nine minutes later, Tyler Ennis took a pretty backhand feed from Varone along the boards and floated a shot into the Senators net for the 2-0 Sabres lead.’
