Even after playing hero, Kyle Turris had time for the community.

The Ottawa Senators center joined the Capital City Condors - a local hockey organization for kids with developmental disabilities - for dinner Saturday after he scored the overtime winner in Game 5 against the New York Rangers.

He has served as the honorary captain of the Condors since taking over for Matt Carkner, who selected him as his successor after departing the Senators for the New York Islanders in 2012.

Turris also hosts a golf tournament with the Condors, and the sixth annual Kyle Turris and Capital City Condors Golf Classic will take place next month.
