Projected Lines, Defensive Pairings For Bruins-Kraken Matchup
The Bruins will round out their first back-to-back of the season Sunday evening when they welcome the Kraken to TD Garden.
Boston is coming off arguably its best win of the season Saturday when it logged a 3-0 win in Philadelphia. The decisive triumph arrived just three days after the Bruins were blanked by the Flyers at TD Garden.
With Joonas Korpisalo in line to take a deserved break following his 20-save performance at Wells Fargo Center, Jeremy Swayman is set to be in between the pipes against Seattle. Boston’s top netminder will be looking to bounce back after allowing six goals against the Carolina Hurricanes in Raleigh on Thursday night.

BRUINS (5-6-1)
Brad Marchand — Elias Lindholm — David Pastrnak
Pavel Zacha — Charlie Coyle — Justin Brazeau
Trent Frederic — Matthew Poitras — Morgan Geekie
John Beecher — Mark Kastelic — Cole Koepke
Nikita Zadorov — Charlie McAvoy
