Toronto sprung to life after Tie Domi leveled Game One hero Marian Hossa just 5:45 into the first period.

Just under five minutes later, Roberts motored down the right side, pulled up at the inner edge of the faceoff circle and beat goaltender Patrick Lalime to the glove side.

Belfour made the lead stand. Making his 150th career postseason appearance, he tied Dominik Hasek and Terry Sawchuk for seventh place on the all-time shutout list and Martin Brodeur for fourth place with his 83rd win.
