The Bruins' lineup will look much different against the Lightning.
The Boston Bruins are back on the ice tonight to face off against the Tampa Bay Lightning. They will aim to build off their hard-fought overtime win against the Florida Panthers over the weekend.
For this contest against the Lightning, the Bruins are going to have a far different-looking lineup
Recent call-ups Matt Poitras and Vinni Lettieri will be on the third line with Trent Frederic. The fourth line also has a new look, as Justin Brazeau was dropped to it, with John Beecher and Cole Koepke as his linemates.
The Bruins' blueline is also very different. With Charlie McAvoy being placed on injured reserve, Brandon Carlo was moved up to the top pairing with Nikita Zadorov. After being scratched against the Panthers, Parker Wotherspoon will play on the second pairing with Mason Lohrei. Michael Callahan will also make his NHL debut on the third pairing with Jordan Oesterle.
