NHL Regular Season Finale

The final game of the 2013 NHL regular season is tonight, with the...

Boston Bruins hosting the Ottawa Senators. Robin Lehner and Tuukka Rask guard the cages. Ottawa led off in the first period as Erik Condra netted his fourth of the season, assisted by Jean-Gabriel Pageau and Cory Conacher. The Senators added on in the second period as Jared Cowen scored, with the help of Kyle Turris and Sergei Gonchar. Boston tied it with a Rich Peverley goal, his sixth of the year, a power play goal powered by Wade Redden and Dennis Seidenberg. The Bruins tied it in the third period on a Seidenberg goal, his fourth of the season, fueled by Milan Lucic and Kaspars Daugavins. Ottawa took the lead as Pageau scored his second of the year, thanks to Marc Methot and Erik Karlsson. The Senators iced it at 4-2 on a Turris empty net goal, his twelfth of the campaign, passed from Karlsson and Daniel Alfredsson. The three stars were Lehner (34 for 36 in saves), Seidenberg, and Pageau, while Turris and Karlsson receive the honorable mentions.
