Senators at Bruins: Boston Seeks Fifth Straight Win

The Boston Bruins are entering Thursday night's game riding a wave of success, having won four consecutive games for the first time this season. This streak follows a challenging period marked by a six-game losing streak and seven losses in eight games.

Renewed optimism surrounds the Bruins after their recent shootout victory against the Islanders on Tuesday, which moved them back above a .500 winning percentage.

“It shows the character in our room,” said coach Marco Sturm after Boston overcame three separate one-goal deficits. “We made some mistakes, but I’m glad we came back and won the game.”
