Roster Change: Joe Sacco Makes Two Surprising Players Healthy Scratches Moments Before Puck Drop
Boston Bruins head coach Joe Sacco has announced two players as healthy scratches moments before puck drop.
After being dominated by the Columbus Blue Jackets the Boston Bruins are making some major roster moves.
Today the Boston Bruins ended up sending down
Marc McLaughlin after he was made a healthy scratch for the Bruins past couple of games.
The #NHLBruins have returned Marc McLaughlin to Providence per AHL transactions
And then the Boston Bruins recalled
Fabian Lysell after sending Marc McLaughlin back down to the Providence Bruins in the American Hockey League.
The #NHLBruins have called up Fabian Lysell per organization email.
Joe Sacco confirmed that Fabian Lysell will be in the Bruins lineup tonight and will play on the Bruins third line with
Justin Brazeau, and
Trent Frederic, but with him coming into the lineup the Bruins have announced two players as healthy scratches.
Fabian Lysell makes his NHL debut tonight on a line with Frederic and Brazeau.
Joe Sacoo confirmed that with Lysell coming into the lineup, Bruins newcomer
Oliver Wahlstrom will be coming out of the lineup, but so will Johnny Beecher.
Fabian Lysell in, Wahlstrom and Beecher out according to Joe Sacco.
It's unsure who will be replacing Johnny Beecher as the Bruins only recalled one player, but Joe Sacco feels like a new look on their depth lines will do them good tonight.
The Bruins are looking to get some revenge on the Columbus Blue Jackets tonight after losing both of their first two meetings against each other 5-1, and 6-2.
Yesterday the Bruins played at Nationwide Arena and now they will host the Blue Jackets at TD Garden.
