Major news strikes Andrew Peeke ahead of Bruins-Panthers game
The Boston Bruins are gearing up for a boost in their lineup tonight as defenseman Andrew Peeke is set to return to the ice.
Peeke has been sidelined since Game 2 of the first-round series against the Toronto Maple Leafs after sustaining an injury from a puck to the hand.
Coach Jim Montgomery confirmed that Peeke is available to play in tonight's game, marking his comeback at a crucial time for the team.
His return is expected to strengthen the Bruins' defense as they continue their quest in the playoffs.
Per Montgomery, #NHLBruins Andrew Peeke is available tonight.
Tonight's lineup for the Bruins is anticipated to feature some strong combinations:
Forward lines: Zacha-Geekie-Pastrnak, Marchand-Coyle-DeBrusk, Van Riemsdyk-Frederic-Brazeau, and Lauko-Beecher-Maroon.
Defensive pairings: Lohrei-McAvoy, Lindholm-Carlo, and Forbort-Peeke.
Goalie Jeremy Swayman will be in net, providing the last line of defense for the team.
Peeke's return is likely to be a significant addition, helping to solidify the Bruins' defensive strategy as they aim to make a deep run in the playoffs.
