Ullmark gets the start
Linus Ullmark (4-0-1, 1.77, .939) began the night in net for the Bruins. Partner Jeremy Swayman (5-0-0, 1.38, .954) is slated for Monday night’s trip wrapup in Dallas . . . Through the first 10 games, the Bruins five times prevented their opponents from ever working with a lead. The totals: Bruins, 267:18; opponents, 66:16. The Bruins only once (Oct. 30 vs. Florida) ended the night with no lead time. However, they won that one in overtime, 3-2 . . . Derek Forbort, who sat out Thursday’s win with an unspecified injury, is on the trip but was not back in the lineup. The injured left home: Matt Grzelcyk, Milan Lucic, and Jakub Lauko. None of them will join the club in Big D . . . Charlie McAvoy, also back in Boston, served game No. 2 of his four-game suspension for his head hit on Oliver Ekman-Larsson. He will make his return Saturday night in Montreal . . . Kevin Shattenkirk (0-1–1) moved into McAvoy’s point spot on the first power-play unit, with van Riemsdyk at net front, Zacha the bumper, and Brad Marchand and Pastrnak on the flanks.
