Brady Tkachuk and Senators lost 6-2 to Boston Bruins

The Boston Bruins totally dominated the Ottawa Senators with a 6-2 win on Tuesday. David Pastrnak was the star of the show, he scored a hat trick.

“It was great. I’m very happy for our team because after two, we were nowhere near our game but we were up by one goal,” Pastrnak said.

It was a wild game with lots of goals, and the fans were loving it, especially when they threw hats and even a bear coat onto the ice to celebrate Pastrnak's hat trick.

Other players like Justin Brazeau, Jesper Boqvist, and Kevin Shattenkirk also contributed to Boston's victory. On the other side, the Senators tried their best, but they just couldn't keep up with Boston's offensive power. Their coach, Jacques Martin said:

“They were persistent tonight and they were able to get a couple goals in the third that made the difference. I liked how we played in the second. I think it’s just that we need to be able to put three periods together.”

Next up, the Senators will face the St. Louis Blues, hoping to bounce back after this loss.
