Berkshire Bank Hockey Night In New England: Projected Bruins-Lightning Lines, Pairings

The Boston Bruins will try to stretch their win streak to three when they kick off a two-game road trip against the Tampa Bay Lightning at Amalie Arena on Monday night.

The Bruins are coming off consecutive wins, including a 5-2 victory over the Montreal Canadiens on Saturday night. The Lightning have won two in a row as well, most recently earning a 6-4 verdict over the Edmonton Oilers.

The Black and Gold might have some extra motivation on Monday night. Bruins players will have their fathers in attendance during the club’s “Dads Trip.”

Bruins defenseman Morgan Geekie and Matt Grzelcyk are on the trip, but will not play.

Puck drop from Tampa Bay is scheduled for 7 p.m. ET, and you can watch it live on NESN after an hour of pregame coverage. You can also play along with NESN’s “Predict The Game” to win a signed jersey by Jake DeBrusk.
