The Boston Bruins are getting ready for puck drop on a 1PM game this afternoon against the New Jersey Devils.�

Boston skated away with a 3-2 overtime win on Thursday night and are hoping for a bit of an easier win this afternoon.�

After the game head coach Bruce Cassidy made it clear that his team didn't appreciate the Devils' players crashing the net and Tuukka Rask and things will change.�

Well the first change is that Jaroslav Halak will get the start this afternoon instead of Rask.�

Not only will Halak make his season debut for the B's but Craig Smith who was a last minute scratch on Thursday will also make his B's debut after signing as a free agent this offseason.�

Jake Studnicka will be a healthy scratch this time around and Anders Bjork will play on the top line with Brad Marchand and Patrice Bergeron.�

Here's a look at the full lineup:

Marchand-Bergeron-Bjork
DeBrusk-Krejci-Kase
Ritchie-Coyle-Smith
Frederic-Kuraly-Wagner

Lauzon-McAvoy
Grzelcyk-Carlo
Zboril-Miller

Halak
