Maintaining consistency in their lineup, the Bruins showcase their new combinations:
Jake DeBrusk, Pavel Zacha, and David Pastrnak as the top line.
Brad Marchand, Matt Poitras, and Morgan Geekie leading the second line.
A notable shift positions Charlie Coyle with Trent Frederic on the third line, rekindling their chemistry from the previous season.
Coach Jim Montgomery emphasizes Coyle's versatility, highlighting his adaptability as an asset to the team.
While the Sharks grapple with a winless start to the season, the departure of Erik Karlsson has cast doubt on their 2023-24 prospects. Key points to note about the Sharks include their projected status as draft lottery favorites and their struggles in puck possession, evidenced by their Corsi and Shots For Percentage. Keep an eye on Tomas Hertl as a key player for the Sharks.
