Three massive lineup changes ahead of Boston Bruins home opener vs the Chicago Blackhawks
The
Boston Bruins ended up winning their season opening game, and now they are set to host the Chicago Blackhawks for their home opener, and the Blackhawks are making some changes.
After losing their first game to the defending Stanley Cup champs, the Chicago Blackhawks are making some changes to their lineup to face the Bruins.
Blackhawks new head coach Jeff Blashill is making some big changes ahead of their game against the Boston Bruins.
It was confirmed that goaltender
Arvid Soderblom, the Blackhawks backup goaltender is going to get the start in net after
Spencer Knight had a solid showing against the Panthers.
Blashill also confirmed that
Ryan Donato is being taken off the Blackhawks top line, and placed on the third instead. Defenseman
Alex Vlasic is also coming into the lineup to replace
Ethan Del Mastro.
According to a Blackhawks insider, this is how Chicago's lines will be for the game:
Dach-Bedard-Burakovsky
Teravainen-Nazar-Bertuzzi
Donato-Dickinson-Mikheyev
Foligno-Greene-Lafferty
Vlasic-Rinzel
Kaiser-Levshunov
Grzelcyk-Murphy
Soderblom
Bruins to make some changes as well
Nothing is official at the moment for the Boston Bruins, but considering they are playing back-to-back games,
Joonas Korpisalo will more than likely get the start in goal for the Bruins tonight.
After their performance against the Washington Capitals, it's tough to see the Bruins making any roster changes ahead of their game.
Do you think the Boston Bruins are going to make any lineup changes tonight?
