Bruins official roster for original six rivalry match against the Toronto Maple Leafs
The Boston Bruins official roster for their original six rivalry match against the Toronto Maple Leafs.
The Boston Bruins are heading into Tuesday night's game against the Toronto Maple Leafs with momentum from two straight wins and the recent signing of veteran forward Tyler Johnson.
Toronto, meanwhile, has dropped its last two games, including a 2-1 overtime loss to the Minnesota Wild on Sunday.
Johnson, a two-time Stanley Cup champion, is set to make his debut on the Bruins' third line alongside center Matthew Poitras and winger Trent Frederic.
To make room, Morgan Geekie will sit as a healthy scratch. Parker Wotherspoon is also back in the lineup, taking Mason Lohrei's spot on the third defensive pairing.
The puck drops at 7 p.m. ET at Scotiabank Arena, with NESN airing an hour of pregame coverage before the game.
