SenShot's Nestor Quixtan argues that goaltender Samuel Ersson provided the Ottawa Senators with crucial stability and time during their 2-1 victory over the Buffalo Sabres on Wednesday night. Quixtan highlights that after Peyton Krebs scored late in the second period, Ersson shut the door, enabling Ottawa to tie the score and eventually secure a late go-ahead goal.
