Anderson on OT success: 'We're not smart enough to know any different'

Everyone wants to know the Ottawa Senators' secret.

Following Saturday's Game 1 win over the Pittsburgh Penguins, the Senators are now 6-1 in overtime decisions during the Stanley Cup Playoffs.

Perhaps it's because they're not overthinking it, so to speak.

"I think we're not smart enough to know any different," Anderson told Scott Oake of "Hockey Night in Canada" when asked why Ottawa is winning all these overtime games.

If random trivia is any indication, the Senators could be on their way to greater things.
