Bruins Look To Bounce Back After Loss Against the Sabres

 


After sloppy play cost the Bruins a loss against the Flyers, the Bs look to get back on track in Buffalo. They will be without the services of Foligno who suffered an upper-body injury and is day to day. So Blidh is sliding into the line-up tonight.Plus Cassidy announced Moore will be slotting in Clifton's spit on defense . Clifton had a pretty bad game against the Flyers and Moore did have a good preseason. Also notable will be the first regular-season start of Linus Ulmark, the former Sabres netminder. Ulmark looked a bit shaky in the preseason but he had not played since April, so hopefully more practice has helped him sharpen some of the issues he was having. 

The main key for the Bruins is to be smarter and tighter defensively. Giveaways and poor D-zone coverage cost them. Buffalo has been playing inspired hockey so far, short sample size but the Bruins better not sleep on them. They look like they are working hard and playing with a bit of a chip on their shoulders to prove they are better than many had predicted .

Puck drop at 8. Go Bruins!
