Morgan Geekie scored the game-winning goal and Joonas Korpisalo recorded a 29-save shutout as the Boston Bruins beat the visiting Ottawa Senators 2-0 on Thursday night.
Joonas Korpisalo readily admitted that he wasn’t at his best all day on Monday. But given the opportunity to preserve a win for the Bruins against the San Jose Sharks, the netminder showed up at the right time.
Trent Frederic will return to the Bruins lineup after missing two games with an illness. Sacco said there could be other game-time lineup changes. After Wednesday’s loss at New Jersey, Sacco said Swayman was “dealing with something minor” after he replaced him with Joonas Korpisalo in the third period.

For the second-last time this season, the Boston Bruins (24-20-6) battled the Ottawa Senators (24-20-4) in a pivotal divisional matchup that may have large playoff implications later down the line.
It’s come into question more and more frequently over the past number of weeks whether or not the Boston Bruins have what it takes to make the playoffs.
It’s not like the Ottawa Senators stunk up the TD Garden on Thursday. It wasn’t like the game two days before when the Senators absorbed an embarrassing 5-0 road spanking against the New York Rangers.
