Bruins Edge Senators with Zacha's Late OT Goal

Pavel Zacha scored with 5.6 seconds remaining in overtime, securing a 3-2 win for the Boston Bruins over the Ottawa Senators at TD Garden on Thursday. This victory extended Boston's winning streak to five games.

Key Moment

Charlie McAvoy recovered a loose puck in the left corner and skated across the zone, shooting from the goal line. Linus Ullmark made the initial save, but the rebound stayed near the right post where Zacha quickly pushed it in.

“It was a big team win,” Zacha said. “Until the end, all the lines were going. Even through injuries, a couple of guys leaving the game, we stuck together and won the game.”

Team Outlook

“We’re doing enough right things to hang in games, and if you give yourself a chance you put yourself in a spot to get points,” Kuraly said. “There are still things we want to clean up, but we’re sticking to our systems and we’re eliminating major mistakes that ended up in the back of our net during that losing streak.”

The Bruins recovered well after a six-game losing streak earlier in the season and improved their position with this hard-fought victory.

Summary: The Bruins extended their winning streak to five games with Zacha's overtime goal, showcasing team resilience through injuries and a focus on disciplined play.
