Senators' Lazar, Stone attribute scoring outburst to recent acts of generosity

You give, and you apparently get.

Ottawa Senators forwards Curtis Lazar and Mark Stone, who combined to score three goals and four points in Saturday's 6-1 destruction of the Toronto Maple Leafs, believe they're benefiting from good karma.

Lazar told CBC's David Amber that he believes giving money to a homeless man has helped both of the Senators' roommates.

Stone has scored in all three games since his All-Star donation, while Lazar, previously mired in an eight-game scoring drought, scored his fourth and fifth goals after fortuitous bounces yielded empty nets.

Perhaps this is a nightly routine for Erik Karlsson?
