The Penguins will attempt to win their seventh straight game with Matt Murray starting his fourth consecutive game in goal for the first time since returning from a broken hand Nov. 2. After scoring 40 goals in November, the Penguins have a League-leading 35 in their first six December games, but coach Mike Sullivan said the approach could change against the Bruins. "This will be a very different game from the last few," Sullivan said. "We're going to have to fight for every inch of ice. Boston plays with a lot of structure. I think they're a defense-first team and we're going to have to be prepared to embrace that particular challenge." Forwards Sidney Crosby, Evgeni Malkin and Phil Kessel have surged recently, but the Penguins' secondary scoring has led the offense. Forward Bryan Rust, who has four goals and six points in his past five games, was one of seven Penguins to score in a 7-0 win against the Arizona Coyotes on Monday. Defenseman Justin Schultz had his fourth goal and ninth point in seven games after going without a point in his first 22. The Penguins are 12-2-1 at PPG Paints Arena this season.
