Boston Bruins Head Coach Joe Sacco Confirmed Two Unexpected Players As Healthy Scratches Ahead Of Game

Boston Bruins head coach Joe Sacco confirmed two unexpected players to be healthy scratches today in game vs the Toronto Maple Leafs.

Joe Sacco has been facing controversy from fans around the league with his decision to keep Trent Frederic in the lineup even after his horrible play of late with centering the third line.

To make matters worse Trent Frederic has gone 11 straight games without registering a point, only has 11 total points on the season, five of them being goals, with six assists.

It's clear that Trent Frederic is not cut out to center an entire line, but can take draws when needed too, but he is a much better player when placed on a wing.

Now fans are wondering why the Bruins are taking Parker Wotherspoon back out of the lineup and putting Jordan Oesterle in his place.

Parker Wotherspoon has been solid for the Bruins of late when he's been in the Bruins lineup, and making him a healthy scratch is definitely a interesting decision by Joe Sacco.

The other Boston Bruin who is being healthy scratched for tonight's game is Marc McLaughlin. Fans are also interested by this decision since he has played better in the lineup then Oliver Wahlstrom has since being claimed off of waivers by the Boston Bruins.

Here are the Bruins projected lines for their game against the Toronto Maple Leafs tonight according to their morning skate today:

Do you think the decision to healthy scratch Wotherspoon and McLaughlin is a smart move by head coach Joe Sacco?
