Bruins were a borderline team that reached its limits

Pack away the skates and put away the Zamboni, the Bruins’ season is over, and now officially so is winter in Boston.

Ottawa’s Clarke MacArthur, who drew a holding penalty on David Pastrnak to give Ottawa an overtime man-advantage, ended it with 6 minutes 30 seconds gone by in OT, banging a power-play goal past Bruins goalie Tuukka Rask. That gave the Senators a 3-2 overtime win at TD Garden on Sunday and a decisive fourth victory in this best-of-seven Eastern Conference playoff series.

The Bruins’ season on the brink finally reached its limit, just like their talent.
