"Definitely get a little bit of revenge here," said Zach Senyshyn, who will get the chance to skate on the right wing alongside Ryan Spooner and Matt Beleskey on Friday night.
"We made a lot of mistakes out there and definitely want to up our compete and really show we're a lot better than what we were on Wednesday."
Senyshyn skated on a line with Austin Czarnik and Sean Kuraly on Wednesday in his first preseason game of 2016-17. It marked his first game action since undergoing an appendectomy on Sept. 4.
"Definitely got my feet a little wet on Wednesday - it was my first game in a couple months," he evaluated. "You look back and try to take the little things you did well and work with the coaches, do some video - really, it's no excuses this game, for sure."
After getting 15 minutes in ice time against Detroit, with nearly a minute in power play time, and logging five shots on goal, Senyshyn will look to step up his game playing alongside two full-timers in Beleskey and Spooner.
"They're two really talented players obviously and older guys that I look up to as a player," said Senyshyn. "So I think it's going to be really good to see how they play and work with them and hopefully learn a few things."
"He's got a lot of speed," Spooner said of the 19-year-old Senyshyn, who was drafted 15th overall by Boston in 2015. "So I think for me, if I can kick the puck to the outside to him and just try to get to the net for him, it should work."
