In a wildly entertaining and raucous game, the Bruins had their most emotional win of the season in their grasp only to cough up a two-goal lead late in the final 3:13 of regulation with the goalie pulled and lose in a shootoout, 6-5.

It was an electric game with intensity that matched the atmosphere at Canadian Tire Centre as the Ottawa Senators defeated the Boston Bruins 6-5 in the shootout.

It was the loosest defensive game the Ottawa Senators have played in weeks, but there was no denying the entertainment on Saturday afternoon at Canadian Tire Centre. Down 5-3 to the rival Boston Bruins with the goalie pulled,
