Game 2 - Bruins @ Senators | 2017 Playoffs

[Alfie11]

- Anderson vs Rask

- Sounds like Methot will play, but we'll find out after the pre-game skate. May go with 7 D

- Dzingel is in

[Alfie11]

Sens just tied the game 3-3 after trailing 3-1 to start the third. Karlsson with a crazy play to Brassard. The CTC is wild

[Alfie11]

We've got OT coming up in Ottawa. Sens will start the OT on a powerplay after Chara shot the puck over the glass

SENS!!! Huge goal from Phaneuf after a great effort to keep it in!

[Alfie11]

Phaneuf is the overtime hero and this series is going back to Boston 1-1

MacArthur scoring his first goal in two years was an unreal moment

[Alfie11]

Finally home, so I can share my thoughts now.

- As I said a post ago, the MacArthur scoring that goal was the highlight of the game for me. His celebration was awesome, He's been creating so much since he returned and it's nice to see him get rewarded with the goal. Boucher said it best: "When he raised his arms, I think the whole city did at the same time."

- Erik Karlsson. Ottawa 100% lucked out by getting a generational talent. This series looked like it was going back to Boston 2-0, until Karlsson took control and decided that wasn't going to happen. Absolutely incredible play on the Brassard goal. He may not be at 100%, but he's still the best player in the series.

- Dion Phaneuf ... what a trade by Bryan Murray before he left. MONSTER game from Dion. Two assists on the third period goals and then the OT winner. He may be overpaid, but he's a great option on the second pairing for this team.

- Bruins won the first game because of Rask's play. He had a ton of great saves off Grade A quality scoring chances. The Sens cracked the code and put four past him tonight. I like the thought of that heading into Boston.

- Sens need to take advantage of Boston's depleted D. You have Krug down. You have Carlo down. You have Miller down. And now you have McQuad down. You have to put pressure on the 40 year old Chara, 19 year old McAvoy and all of the other Bruins defensemen who are in over their heads.

Both MacArthur and Phaneuf are quoted for saying : "this was the biggest goal of my career" . Both goals were very meaningful for different reasons but just as important.

Did you guys see the hearfull Karlsson gave Brassard on the bench after the Bs 3rd goal? And then that awesome play to set Brassard up..wow, what a stud!!

Any news on Borowiecki? I kinda want to see Claesson draw in...

I must have missed EK giving it to Brass on the bench, but I definitely saw the unreal setup after walking the blueline. Absolutely amazing.

As for Claesson, I was really unimpressed with his performance in Game 1 and would much prefer to keep Boro in.

He was livid. Apparently he was upset because Brassard yelled for Anderson to play it behind the net and then just stood there and did nothing to help out. You could see him yelling "get back".
