Senators at Bruins: Boston Seeks Fifth Straight Win
The Boston Bruins aim to extend their winning streak to five games as they prepare to face the Ottawa Senators on Thursday night. This marks the first time this season the Bruins have achieved four consecutive victories.
After enduring a tough stretch with six losses in a row and seven defeats in eight games, Boston bounced back with a shootout win against the New York Islanders on Tuesday. This victory pushed their record back above .500 and revived the team's morale.
“It shows the character in our room,” said coach Marco Sturm, reflecting on his team’s resilience after overcoming three separate one-goal deficits. “We made some mistakes, but I’m glad we came back and won the game.”
The Bruins will host the Senators and face Linus Ullmark, their former star goaltender and 2023 Vezina Trophy winner.
Ottawa faces challenges with captain Brady Tkachuk sidelined due to thumb ligament surgery. He is expected to be out for about six more weeks.
