We just had a great display of sportsmanship, courtesy of Brady Tkachuk. The captain of the Ottawa Senators indeed had a penalty called against the opposing team overturned.

The Senators came back and emerged victorious in a playoff-like atmosphere against the Bruins at the Canadian Tire Centre.

David Pastrnak had a goal and two assists, Pavel Zacha and Morgan Geekie each had a goal and an assist, and Jeremy Swayman made 39 saves for the Bruins (22-19-6), who lost for the seventh time in nine games (2-5-2).
