Bruins-Flyers Projected Lines, Pairings: Joonas Korpisalo Gets Start For Boston

The Boston Bruins look to close out their three-game homestand on a positive note when they host the Philadelphia Flyers on Tuesday night at TD Garden.

They have a good chance to do so facing a Flyers team that has lost seven out of its last eight games and has the second-fewest points in the league. The Bruins are coming off an overtime win over the Toronto Maple Leafs on Saturday night.

Boston will give Jeremy Swayman the night off, with Joonas Korpisalo starting in net. It’s Korpisalo’s first start in two weeks. Bruins head coach Jim Montgomery also decided to put Justin Brazeau at the right wing spot on the second line after he potted his second goal in as many games against Toronto.

The Bruins and Flyers will drop the puck from TD Garden at 7 p.m. ET. You can catch complete coverage on NESN.
