Need to Know: Bruins vs. Senators
Korpisalo will start in net for Boston on Thursday at TD Garden
BOSTON –– The Boston Bruins have something to prove on Thursday at TD Garden.
The Ottawa Senators are in town for a rematch after the Bruins' 7-2 loss on Oct. 27. Boston has since rebounded with four straight wins and looks to extend its streak come the 7 p.m. puck drop.
“It was a pretty bad game from us. That was the first time I didn’t feel any energy on the bench, especially going into the third. We can throw it away, but I also think we learn from it. That we can’t play like that. We can’t take a period or two off because the league is that good,” head coach Marco Sturm said. “That should be motivation enough for us [today] to show an answer. Because that was not us.”

The Atlantic Division rivals, the Ottawa Senators and the Boston Bruins, are facing off for the second time this season on Thursday. Ottawa lost to the Senators 7-2 at the end of October.
After Boston's Morgan Geekie scored the first goal in that first game, the Senators scored seven goals in a row. Both Drake Batherson and Tim Stutzle had two goals and an assist to skate to an easy victory. Boston has picked it up since then with 16 points compared to Ottawa’s 14. The Montreal Canadiens lead the division overall so far with 19.
Boston is looking for its fifth straight win. The Bruins won their first three games this season, but then lost seven of their next eight games before this current winning streak.
