nis Seidenberg

BOSTON -- Dennis Seidenberg wound up and stepped into a slapshot from centre ice, hoping just to get the puck deep into Ottawas zone or maybe generate a quick rebound. Branislav Ivanovic Jersey . Seidenberg was as surprised as anyone else to see the puck skip off the ice, then get past Senators goalie Craig Anderson for the tiebreaking goal with 12:51 left as the Boston Bruins rallied for a 4-3 win on Tuesday night. "I dont know if it was a lucky bounce or the way it came off of my stick," Seidenberg said. "It just seemed to bounce off the ice and kind of was rising up and it was tough to read I guess for him and somehow it went in." "Somehow" was just fine with the Bruins, who had allowed 10 goals in their previous two games and were badly outplayed in the second period Tuesday night, falling behind 3-1 before Milan Lucics goal with 45 seconds left in the period got Boston within one. Brad Marchand pounced on a rebound and tied it early in the third, then Seidenberg stunned everybody in the building. "It took a one-bouncer and it hit my stick and went in," Anderson said. "Just one of those things where Ive got to make the save but, at the same time it took a crazy bounce." Zdeno Chara had a power-play goal and an assist and Joe Corvo assisted twice as Boston defencemen totalled six points in the game. Ottawa had a chance to pull within two points of the Bruins for the Northeast Division lead. Instead, Boston won its 11th straight over a division opponent and is just one point behind the New York Rangers for the Eastern Conference lead. Tim Thomas was welcomed with his usual warm greeting during introductions in his first home game since he sat out the Bruins visit to the White House last week, saying he believes the federal government "has grown out of control." "I didnt take it for granted," Thomas said. "I was mentally prepared either way." If any fans were upset with Thomas political statement, it didnt show and Thomas helped his own public relations campaign by shutting down the Senators after falling behind 3-1. Thomas finished with 30 saves. "I just saw them cheering him," Boston coach Claude Julien said. "Everybody was probably waiting to see what the reaction was going to be, so it was pretty clear that they still respect him for his hockey skills, and they certainly are not holding anything against him for his view on the rest." Seidenberg put Boston ahead as he fired a low shot just after crossing the red line and the puck whistled through to the net. Anderson finished with 26 saves. He couldnt control a rebound and Marchand whacked at it until it went in for the tying goal, then was stunned by Seidenbergs blast from the Bruins logo a few minutes later. The Senators have lost four straight -- all on the road after setting a franchise record with a point in 11 straight road games. "We scored three 5-on-5 goals against a really good defensive team. Five-on-five we were the better team, so its frustrating to lose this one," said Daniel Alfredsson, who had an assist for Ottawa. "I dont know how we dont win it." The Senators controlled the second period, playing like they were on a power play for most of it even though they never had a man advantage. Ottawa outshot Boston 13-5 in the period and got goals from Kyle Turris and Erik Karlsson to take a 3-1 lead. Turris fired an unscreened shot past Thomas with 12:17 left in the second for a 2-1 lead. Karlsson put Ottawa up by two with a wrist shot from the left circle that also got past Thomas. Boston finally broke Ottawas grip on the period in the final minute and Lucic took advantage on a shot from the slot that got Boston within 3-2 with 45 seconds left. "We recognized that we werent playing very well. We werent happy with our D and if we planned on wining we had to be a lot better in the third period," Julien said. "That goal kind of gave us some hope." Ottawa tied it one-all when Colin Greening one-timed a pass from Milan Michalek in the slot. Michalek got the puck after Filip Kubas blast from the point hit Thomas hard in the left pad and the rebound bounced right to Michalek at the right circle. Boston had taken a 1-0 lead on Charas slapshot from the point on a power play, his first goal in 17 games -- not counting his goal Sunday in the all-star game while leading Team Chara to victory. Notes: The Senators did not have a power play. ... Ottawa, which hosted the all-star game over the weekend, will play its first home game since Jan. 16 on Friday against the Islanders. ... Boston F Nathan Horton missed his second straight game with a mild concussion. ... Boston D Andrew Ference sat out the final game of a three-game suspension for a hit on the Rangers Ryan McDonagh on Jan. 21. Thibaut Courtois Jersey . TSN Hockey Insiders Bob McKenzie and Darren Dreger reported this week that general manager Tim Murray is listening in on offers for almost every player on the roster and McKenzie added Friday that while theres no guarantee hell be traded, the Sabres have asked blueliner Christian Ehrhoff for - as his no-trade clause stipulates - a list of eight teams he doesnt want to be traded to. Chelsea Jersey . The 20-year-old rookie from Toronto, the first Canadian ever selected with the first overall pick in the NBA Draft when the Cleveland Cavaliers grabbed him in 2013, has had anything but a storybook beginning to his professional career. DETROIT -- The Tigers have finalized their $2.5 million. one-year deal with right-handed reliever Joba Chamberlain. Chamberlain joins a retooled bullpen that also includes free agent acquisition Joe Nathan. The hard-throwing Chamberlain, whose slide has been inconsistent in recent years, was 2-1 with one save in 45 games and a career-high 4.93 ERA last season for the New York Yankees. Detroit general manager Dave Dombrowski indicated Friday that the team may not make any more major moves this off-season. The Tigers traded slugger Prince Fielder for second baseman Ian Kinsler last month, and their lineup figures to have less power and more speed next year. Andreas Christensen Jersey. Chamberlain missed almost the entire month of May last season because of a strained right oblique. He was limited to 49 games over the previous two years because of elbow and ankle operations. In additional to his base salary, Chamberlain can earn $500,000 in performance bonuses: $100,000 each for 35, 40, 45, 50 and 55 games. He would get $75,000 if he makes the All-Star team. cheap jerseys wholesale jerseys ' ' '
