Watch: MacArthur's OT winner pushes Senators into 2nd round

Greg M. Cooper-USA TODAY Sports / USA TODAY Sports

Clarke MacArthur scored the overtime winner on the power play in Game 6 as the Ottawa Senators eliminated the Boston Bruins on Sunday.

The Senators will now play the New York Rangers in the second round.

MacArthur was the fortunate recipient of a failed cross-ice pass by Bobby Ryan to Mike Hoffman that Tuukka Rask got a piece of, putting the puck onto the stick of the Senators forward.

For MacArthur, the goal is that much more special after it looked as though problems with a concussion earlier in the year would not only keep him out for the season, but possibly put his career in jeopardy.

In the end, the goal serves as MacArthur's second of the postseason, but easily his biggest.
