Senators hoping to rebound for Game 6 after double-OT loss in Game 5
OTTAWA — The Ottawa Senators carried a little extra baggage onto their plane for Boston Saturday afternoon.
The Senators had a chance to win its best-of-seven quarter-final series against the Bruins in five games Friday night, but instead lost 3-2 in double-overtime, allowing Boston to claw its way back into the series.
Ottawa leads the series 3-2 and will look to eliminate Boston Sunday afternoon.
“I told the players the No. 1 asset that everybody has to have is the ability to rebound right away after the game,” said Senators coach Guy Boucher. “There’s no time to linger on games that you win or that you lose. … (Sunday is) going to be the same type of game, it’s going to be an equal game again and it’s going to go down to the wire and we know that.”
