Bruins Hold On In Overtime Against Ottawa For Fifth Straight Win
BOSTON — Just ten days after a tough 7-2 defeat to the Ottawa Senators that extended their early losing streak, the Boston Bruins faced them again on Thursday night at TD Garden. This time, the Bruins looked like a completely renewed team, edging out Ottawa 3-2 in overtime for their fifth consecutive victory.
“It was big motivation for us,” Pavel Zacha said. “We lost a game there and lost pretty badly. Before the game, we were motivated to give it back, and I’m happy that we won.”
Pavel Zacha sealed the win for Boston with only 5.6 seconds remaining in overtime. Defenseman Charlie McAvoy created the opportunity, circling the offensive zone before firing a shot that Zacha redirected into the net, marking his fourth goal of the season.
Earlier in the game, Boston held a 2-1 lead with less than ten minutes left in regulation, showing strong defensive control before Ottawa forced the extra frame. The Bruins ultimately maintained composure and extended their impressive win streak.
Author's Summary: Boston rebounded from a prior blowout loss to claim a gritty overtime win over Ottawa, fueled by Zacha’s last-second goal and McAvoy’s persistence.
