Boston Bruins 4-2 Win Over the Ottawa Senators in .Gifs.
Because I’m happy …
[fragment number=0]
Matt Fraser has been a healthy scratch for the majority of the season, but he found his way into the lineup against the Senators after David Krejci was a very late scratch with an undisclosed injury. Fraser did not pass up his opportunity to stay in the lineup with two goals in the second period, including the game-winning goal as the Bruins defeated the Senators 4-2. Brad Marchand opened the scoring late in the first period off of a clean face-off win.

Only 38 seconds later, with just 28 seconds left in the first period, Mark Stone tied the game.

The second period was the period of Matt Fraser. He scored his first of the season after Loui Eriksson forced a turnover and a rebound came right to Fraser. Eriksson and Fraser were two pieces of the Tyler Seguin trade and today was the first game that all four pieces – including Reilly Smith and Joe Morrow – all played in a regular season game together.

Fraser’s shot is his weapon (or “gift’’ as Krejci says) and that was on full display when he scored just a few minutes later with a laser to beat Ottawa goaltender Robin Lehner. It was Fraser’s first career multi-goal game, and the third game in a row in which the Bruins had one player who scored two goals (Seth Griffith and Brad Marchand in the previous two).
Just over two minutes into the second period, Dennis Seidenberg’s first goal of the season put the Bruins up 4-1.

Mika Zibanejad scored Ottawa’s second goal with five minutes left in the third period as the Bruins began to lay increasingly sloppy, but that would be it for a potential Senators comeback.
