Zdeno Chara had seven goals in 80 games this season—and the 6-9 defenseman has never been much of a scorer. But the Boston Bruins' captain couldn't have picked a better time to break character and score two in a single game to help Boston beat Buffalo 5-3 and tie the series 1-1. Chara spoke to Sporting News correspondent Tim O'Shei and other reporters before heading back to Boston for Games 3 and 4.


Question: You've never been much of a true goal scorer. How refreshing is it to get two goals in a game?
Zdeno Chara: It's always nice to get a win. It's nice to even the series and be heading back home.

Q: Any gratification personally?
ZC: No, right now it's all about the team and that we tied the series 1-1
