Senators’ Twitter account takes shot at Bruins—who get last laugh
These two Bruins fans joined in the celebration after Frank Vatrano tied the game at 1-1 during the third period.
The Bruins’ offense wasn’t exactly prolific in the second period of Game 1 Wednesday night—and the Senators’ Twitter account made sure everyone knew during the game.
The Bruins failed to record a shot on goal in the second period.
Can someone in the advanced stat community tell us if that is good?

The burn was followed by two more tweets, putting the Bruins’ ineptitude in context.
1/2 The #Sens have held a playoff opponent without at least one SOG in one period for the first time in franchise history.

2/2 The previous record was two shots, which occurred on seven occasions, most recently in 2007.

In the third period, however, the Bruins came alive, tying the game on a Frank Vatrano goal and taking the lead on Brad Marchand’s goal with 2:33 remaining.
The B’s would hold on for a 2-1 win and give their fans the easiest Twitter comeback ever:
