The Ottawa Senators came through in a big way on Sunday afternoon as they defeated the Boston Bruins 3-2 in overtime to take the series in six games.
With the victory, the Senators advanced to the second round of the NHL playoffs for the first time since the 2012-13 season.
The NHL playoffs is always full of hard-fought battles, but at the end of the series the players put everything aside for the ritual end-of-series handshake line. This is a time where most enemies end up putting all their differences aside and show respect for their opponent by shaking hands after the series.
Following the Senators’ Game 6 victory over the Bruins, captains Erik Karlsson and Zdeno Chara met at centre ice and showed their respect for each other with a solid handshake.
Just one of the many things that makes hockey so great.
