PREGAME NOTES

The Bruins will shuffle their bottom-six unit, with Sean Kuraly centering the third line and bumping Charlie Coyle to right wing. Jake DeBrusk will sit, while Trent Frederic will slot back into the lineup and skate on a fourth line with Curtis Lazar and Chris Wagner.

Tuukka Rask will get the start in net for Boston. A starter has yet to be announced for Thursday's game against the Sabres.

If Boston falls in regulation to the Pens and the Rangers take care of the Sabres on Tuesday night, the Blueshirts will sit just two points behind Boston in the East Division standings.
