BUFFALO, N.Y., March 13 (UPI) -- Tyler Ennis scored twice and Mike Weber added three assists Sunday, propelling the surging Buffalo Sabres to a 6-4 victory over Ottawa.

Nathan Gerbe and Brad Boyes also found the net and Ryan Miller turned aside 34-of-38 shot for the Sabres.

Jason Spezza scored two goals and added a pair of assists for the Senators, who saw their three-game road winning streak snapped.
