After the Bruins beat the Florida Panthers on Monday, coach Jim Montgomery admitted he was worried about the upcoming game against the Senators in their home opener in Ottawa while the Bruins were playing the second half of a back-to-back.
His concerns were well-founded, though Montgomery may not have quite envisioned the defense-optional game of shinny that took place at Scotiabank Arena on Tuesday.
The Bruins twice fell behind by three goals, coming back to tie it once but failing to do so a second time, absorbing their first loss of the season, dropping a 7-5 decision to the young and hungry Sens.
