Bruins Aim for Fifth Straight Win Against Senators
The Boston Bruins enter Thursday night's game on a four-game winning streak—their longest this season. After a tough stretch of six consecutive losses and seven defeats in eight games, the team has bounced back and improved their record above .500 following a shootout victory over the New York Islanders on Tuesday.
“It shows the character in our room,” said coach Marco Sturm, referring to Boston’s comeback from three one-goal deficits during their recent game. “We made some mistakes, but I’m glad we came back and won the game.”
The Bruins will host the Ottawa Senators, facing former teammate Linus Ullmark, who won the Vezina Trophy with Boston in 2023. The Senators will be without their captain, Brady Tkachuk, who missed the previous game against the Bruins and is expected to be sidelined for around six more weeks after thumb ligament surgery.
