The Boston Bruins Eke One Out In OT Against The Ottawa Senators. Combined Speed Of All Three Goals Did Not Exceed School Zone Speed Limit.

Maybe it was sweet payback for Tuukka Rask, this time the game winning goal in the fading minutes of OT with the Senators was a dirty goal FOR the Bruins:

  • Remember, Tuukka doesn't like to lose in OT. Just for fun, let's revisit the drama of the fiery Finn's ire. [BigLeadSports]
  • Claude Julien has the same confidence in Rask that he had in Tim Thomas. [BostonGlobe]
  • However, Julien noted that the Bruins were being beaten to the puck more than he'd have liked. [NESN]
  • The Bruins squeaked out this one, chalking up a character win, and will play at home for the next short stretch. [ESPN]
  • Dougie Hamilton stepped in to give-and-go with Nathan Horton, who trickled one past Robin Lehner. [BostonHerald]
  • The Senators scored after the Bs failed to clear the crease after Tuukka Rask closed down a clean breakaway during a Sens power-play. [BostonHerald]
  • The game winning OT nail-biter was a trickling Patrice Bergeron redirection of a Dennis Seidenberg shot, which was reviewed. [BostonHerald]
  • Here's the lowdown on the good, the bad, and the ugly. [WEEI]
  • Milan Lucic 's physicality benefitted the Bruins. [ESPN]
  • And the Bruins were still not playing their best hockey. [WEEI]
  • The Bruins have played 5 games to OT and 3 of those to shootout. Despite having played the fewest games in the NHL, it has been a grind. [WBZ,CBSLocal]
  • Adam McQuaid has taken Hamilton under his wing, and being roomates has worked out well so far for them. [ESPN]
  • So far, no Bruins have taken to wearing Kevlar stockings. Dennis Seidenberg, who knows a bit about blade injuries, spoke about the issue. [BostonHerald]
  • Speaking of blade injuries, the ceremonial puck drop was made by a high-school player who suffered a slice to the wrist and the trainer whose quick action likely saved his life. [EagleTribune]
  • Did you know there's etiquette for plus/minus among players? I didn't. [TheScore]
