With every game feeling like a pivotal game, and Florida only four points back from them in the standings, the Bruins will roll out a new line up from the previous wins in their win streak against the Penguins Thursday night. While Matt Poitras' time in the World Juniors is over with Canada's upset defeat, he is not yet been added back to the Bruins' line up.
Fans will be able to see some adjustments made, namely separating Marchand and Pastrnak. That will strengthen any second line they are on. Defenseman Mason Lohrei is playing tonight after sitting out practice yesterday after taking a puck to the face the night before. Merkulov gets moved down to the fourth line, with a newly subbed back in Johnny Bleecher and Steen.
