Boston, Senators and Ottawa
Digest more
The Bruins return to the scene of the crime that helped them wake up and rip off seven straight wins when they face the Senators in Ottawa on Thursday night. The last time the B’s were there on October 27, they were non-competitive, losing 7-2 in a game that wasn’t even that close.
Ryan Kennedy, Michael Traikos and Gary Pearson discuss the Atlantic’s three-way tie, the Leafs’ losses, Roslovic’s hot streak and more.

Pavel Zacha scores on a rebound with six seconds left in overtime, leading the Boston Bruins to a 3-2 victory over the Ottawa Senators.
With the victory, the Senators improved their record to 9-5-4, good for a three-way tie for top spot in the Atlantic with Boston and Montreal. The Canadiens were clobbered by Dallas on Thursday night 7-0 but still hold the edge by virtue of playing one fewer game than the Senators.
And though the Bruins fought like hell, the mistakes proved too costly, as the Bruins saw their seven-game win streak come to an end with a 5-3 loss. The loss was the B's second in their last 10 games, and with both to Ottawa.
