The Bruins will get their first look at the Flames tonight before wrapping up the season series in Calgary next Monday.� The Flames enter tonight' s game in third place in the Pacific Division and have won four out of their last five games.

Calgary's top line of Johnny Gaudreau, Sean Monahan and Micheal Ferland have been one of the best combinations in the league this season.� They have combined for 65 goals and 150 points in 56 games this year.� There is little doubt that Patrice Bergeron will draw against this line for much of the evening.

The Bruins will not see top goaltender Mike Smith as he is out with an apparent groin injury suffered on Sunday night.� David Riitich will get the start in his place and he has done very well in his limited time this season.

Defenseman Kevan Miller appears to be getting close to a return, but that will not come tonight.�

"He's gone from riding a bike to skating, and then he'll get contact. Then he'll practice and we'll see where the lineup is at," said head coach Bruce Cassidy of Miller, per NBC Sports Boston. "It could be Saturday [in Vancouver]. I fully anticipate he's going on the [Western Canada] trip with us. But that's a few days away."
