Bruins Going With Fascinating Lineup Against Blackhawks

The Boston Bruins are set to face off against the Chicago Blackhawks tonight (Dec. 4). They will look to stay hot after winning each of their last two contests. 

At this juncture, the expectation is that the Bruins will roll with the same forward lines and defense pairings as they did against the Detroit Red Wings in their last contest. However, there is expected to be a change in the pipes, as Jeremy Swayman is expected to start.

Here is the Bruins' full projected lineup now. 

Forwards

First Line: Morgan Geekie, Pavel Zacha, David Pastrnak

Second Line: Brad Marchand, Elias Lindholm, Justin Brazeau

Third Line: Trent Frederic, Charlie Coyle, Mark Kastelic

Fourth Line: Cole Koepke, Johnny Beecher, Marc McLaughlin

Defensemen

First Pairing: Jordan Oesterle & Charlie McAvoy

Second Pairing: Nikita Zadorov & Brandon Carlo

Third Pairing: Mason Lohrei & Andrew Peeke
