4. Colin Greening – 2013 Second Round, Game 3 vs. Pittsburgh Penguins (2OT)

Importance: After losing the first two games of the second round in Pittsburgh, the Sens came back home with a virtual must-win. It wasn’t easy, but they eventually saved their season in the fifth period. 6/10

Quality: Andre Benoit does well to get into space and fire it on the net, then Greening is there to put in the rebound on his backhand. Unfortunately for Greening, as a 3rd line type player he doesn’t earn absurdity points as Carkner did, nor does he endear himself to fans the way Fisher did. 5/10

The next step: While the team did get two more games out of the series, they were easily brushed aside by a far superior Pittsburgh team in what would wind up being Daniel Alfredsson’s last games before he left for Detroit as a free agent retired as a lifelong Ottawa Senator because anything else would have been ridiculous. 3/10

Final Score: A nice goal in at an important time, but without much else surrounding it. 15/30
