BOSTON - Following the Bruins' loss to the Canadiens on Tuesday night in Montreal, one of the consensus bright spots was the play of young winger Zach Senyshyn, who was making his season debut after being recalled from Providence earlier in the day.
Senyshyn, with just two games of NHL experience under his belt, was one of Boston's best players, teaming up with Anders Bjork and Charlie Coyle to put forth a strong effort from the B's third line that included a goal by Bjork and another tally from Coyle that was wiped off the board because of an offside challenge.
It was about as good of an effort as the Bruins could have hoped for from the 22-year-old former first-round pick. And on Wednesday, his performance was solidified further when the National Hockey League awarded Senyshyn with two assists - the first helpers of his career - on goals by Bjork and Connor Clifton. A third was negated on the offside review.
