Boston Bruins defenseman Kevin Shattenkirk appears to be a healthy scratch for the upcoming game against the Winnipeg Jets.
The decision suggests a lineup adjustment by the Bruins coaching staff. This could also mean maybe he is dealing with an injury or the Bruins coaching staff just isn't impressed with his play of recent.
In Shattenkirk's absence, there's an opportunity for another player to step in, with Parker Wotherspoon poised to take on a more active role in the game.
The strategic move emphasizes the depth and versatility within the Bruins' defensive lineup as they face the challenge presented by the Winnipeg Jets in the upcoming matchup.
