PREGAME NOTES

The Boston Bruins change up their lines as they play game four against the Buffalo Sabres at TD Garden. 

Boston made two changes to their lineup. First, they replaced James Hagens with Lukas Reichel, who will play left wing on the third line. The other change is Jordan Harris replacing Mason Lohrei on the second defensive pair. 

Quote from Marco Sturm about benching James Hagens:
“James [Hagens] didn’t do anything wrong, nothing,” Sturm said. “He’s 19-years-old. I started as a scratch in my first playoff. Maybe that’s in my mind too. He did more than I thought coming in. Tremendous job, tremendous player.

Quote from Sturm about choosing Lukas Reichel over Alex Steeves and Michael Eyssimont:

“Lukas has something we don’t really have, that’s high end skill and speed, that’s what we hope from him,” Sturm said. “He has to dig deep, he has to compete, but those are things you can’t teach.”
