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

The Boston Bruins will take the ice against the Ottawa Senators for the second game of their three-game homestand at TD Garden on Tuesday night.

The Black and Gold currently lead the NHL in points (95) after earning wins in four of their last five games. Meanwhile, the Senators sit in last place in the Atlantic Division and are coming off a 7-2 loss to the Carolina Hurricanes on Sunday.

Kevin Shattenkirk will re-enter the lineup after sitting out the last two games. Shattenkirk will play on Boston’s third defensive pairing alongside Andrew Peeke. Danton Heinen will shift back to the left wing and play with Pavel Zacha in the center and David Pastrnak on the opposite wing.

Puck drop from TD Garden is scheduled for 7 p.m. ET, and you can watch it on NESN after a full hour of pregame coverage. Make sure to also play NESN’s “Predict The Game” for a chance to win a signed Charlie McAvoy jersey.
