In a surprising turn of events, Boston Bruins head coach Jim Montgomery has revealed that top defensive prospect Mason Lohrei will seize a significant opportunity tonight against the Montreal Canadiens.
Lohrei is set to pair with star defenseman Charlie McAvoy, showcasing the organization's confidence in the young talent. Additionally, the Lindholm-Carlo pairing will reunite, providing a solid defensive foundation.
The third pair will feature Forbort and Mitchell. However, notable veteran Kevin Shattenkirk will be sidelined for the upcoming game.
This lineup adjustment signals the Bruins' commitment to giving promising prospects like Lohrei a chance to shine on the big stage.
