Bruins Hold On In Overtime Against Ottawa For Fifth Straight Win

Bruins Secure Overtime Win Against Ottawa Senators

It was only 10 days ago when the Boston Bruins faced the Ottawa Senators and endured a heavy 7-2 defeat, extending a losing streak that threatened to undermine their season before it had truly started. However, when these two teams met again on Thursday at TD Garden, the Bruins demonstrated a markedly improved performance.

Showing resilience and determination, Boston clinched a 3-2 victory in overtime, marking their fifth consecutive win.

“It was big motivation for us,” said Pavel Zacha. “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.”

Zacha scored the decisive goal for Boston with just 5.6 seconds remaining in overtime. After Charlie McAvoy controlled the puck in the offensive zone for an extended period, he sent a shot on net that Zacha redirected into the goal, securing his fourth goal of the season.

Boston had been leading 2-1 with less than 10 minutes left in the third period, maintaining the pressure until the final moments.
