The Boston Bruins are in for a tough game tonight as they host the New York Islanders.
The Islanders will probably be looking to take it to the Bruins after they were handed a beating by the Nashville Predators and gave up seven straight goals in that game.
Boston still sits at the top of the Atlantic division with 49 points in 35 games while the Islanders sit in second place of the Metro division with 46 points in 32 games.
For the occasion, head coach Bruce Cassidy will send Tuukka Rask between the pipes and he'll likely go up against
Semyon Varlamov.
Cassidy also announced that John Moore is sick and won't be able to play so
Connor Clifton will jump back into the lineup.
It's also unknown if Brett Ritchie will play or not.
Here's a look at tonight's projected lineup:
Marchand - Bergeron - Pastrnak
DeBrusk - Krejci - Heinen
Bjork - Coyle - Wagner
Nordstrom - Kuraly - Backes
Chara - McAvoy
Krug - Carlo
Grzelcyk - Clifton
