PREGAME NOTES

Bruce Cassidy expects Boston to roll out of its full lineup for Thursday’s final home game of the regular season — with Friday’s finale against the Maple Leafs potentially featuring a much lighter squad.

Linus Ullmark will get the start in net against Buffalo on Thursday, while Jeremy Swayman will start on Friday against Toronto.
