BOSTON - The Bruins look to finish the week strong with a win against the Islanders tonight at TD Garden.

Lineup Changes:

  • The Bruins will be without Trent Frederic tonight. "He has a lower body injury," said Joe Sacco. "He'll be out week to week."
  • Replacing Frederic will be Riley Tufte who will skate on the third line with Matt Poitras and Justin Brazeau. "It gives a guy like Riley an opportunity to probably get some more minutes," said Saaco. "To be used more in an offensive situation playing with Matty and see how he responds tonight."
  • Sacco did not name a starting goaltender for tonight.
