Bruins-Ducks Projected Lines, Pairings: D-Corps Still Shaken Up

The Bruins will return to the ice on Saturday, taking part in their first game since the 4 Nations Face-Off against the Anaheim Ducks at TD Garden.

Boston didn’t exactly get healthier over the break, though.

Charlie McAvoy and Hampus Lindholm will be out of the lineup, with the former suffering a serious injury during the international tournament and the latter remaining absent with a lower-body injury. Michael Callahan and Parker Wotherspoon will play in their absence, while Jordan Oesterle is on standby in case Mason Lohrei can’t play with his illness.

“Everybody needs to step up, that’s just the way it is right now,” Bruins interim head coach Joe Sacco said on Saturday, per team-provided transcript. “We’ve played without Lindy for a long time now, Charlie’s missed some games leading up to the break there, missed about seven games. We were able to hold our own, we did a decent job.

“It’s just about the group sticking together and really trying to elevate or just take on a little bit more responsibility. When you have (Brandon) Carlo and (Nikita) Zadorov, two veteran guys, you’re going to lean on those guys a little bit more in those situations.”

Boston and Anaheim are set to drop the puck at 7 p.m. ET, following an hour of pregame coverage on NESN.

@Dennis Bonvie, to follow up on your post in the pre-game, I prefer watching meaningful hockey games. Which the Bruins will not be playing for the remainder of this season unless they are up against a team battling to qualify or they are playing kids who might have a part in the team's future. As I said, I'll still watch, will still enjoy when they play a good game, but it's a different experience to watching a contender.

In the short term, where the team goes from here and how they shape up for next year and beyond will not be determined in any significant way by these remaining 25 games. Hence what management do, or don't do, becomes more important, because that's where the real impact is going to be made. Just how I see it.

All set put my Vcash on the Ducks.
Would've pick the Ducks in my 3 strikes pick'em but used them already.
Start the sell and bring up the youngsters.
Start the lotto numbers rolling
Top 5 or bust
 
I know there's a few fans who want the Bruins to lose so management will be forced to make some moves, but I can't help but root for the B's to win any or all games they can

If they do falter, then I would personally like to see a change in management before any moves are made ..because I don't really trust Sweeney anymore

I don't think the math works out that they could be bad enough to get to top 5. The teams in the top 5 have been what the Bruins would look like without McAvoy and Lindholm and a bunch of kids called up since day 1 of the season. And none of them have a Pasta, either.
