Last Minute Announcement: Boston Bruins Healthy Scratch A Surprising Player
Boston Bruins head coach Joe Sacco confirmed just moments from puck drop that forward will be a last minute healthy scratch for the Boston Bruins as they are set to faceoff against the New York Rangers.
Earlier in the day, Joe Sacco confirmed a roster change involving their goaltenders, and now the Bruins have announced another one.
Jim McBride, a Boston Bruins insider confirmed just moments before the game that Koepke was drawing back into the lineup tonight after being a healthy scratch in their previous game.

The Boston Bruins officially posted their lineup for tonight as well, and just like what McBride reported, Oliver Wahlstrom is officially coming out of the lineup once again.
Oliver Wahlstrom since being claimed off waivers by the Bruins has been a healthy scratch quite often, but has appeared in 41 games this season and has just 3 goals, and 3 assists for 6 points.
Do you think healthy scratching Oliver Wahlstrom was a good move by Bruins head coach Joe Sacco?
