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

Two of the top teams in the National Hockey League will take the ice at TD Garden on Monday night as the Boston Bruins host the Winnipeg Jets.

Boston, which has won its last four games including a dominant 9-4 result against the Montreal Canadiens on Saturday, ranks second in the league in points (65). Winnipeg, which is coming off back-to-back wins including an overtime verdict against the Ottawa Senators on Saturday, is just one point behind (64).

The Black and Gold have two lineup changes from their recent win.

Jeremy Swayman will be back between the pipes after Linus Ullmark made his long-awaited return Saturday. Additionally, Parker Wotherspoon will replace Kevin Shattenkirk on the third defensive pairing.
