Bruins-glowing projected lines, pairings: Jeremy Swayman has start

The Boston Bruins will return to TD Garden on Saturday and try to continue their youngest hot series against the Tampa Bay Lightning.

Jeremy Swayman will give the chance to redeem himself after the office on Thursday.

“We have the feeling that he has to get in there again,” said Bruins interim head coach, Joe Sacco, on Saturday, according to team-ready transcript. “We would like to make sure that we have a good answer as a group here tonight, especially in the first period.”

The BS won't change much at all. Charlie Mcavoy ran alone in front of the morning skate in the Warrior Ice Arena, but is still not ready to return after he was injured in the 4 nation representatives.

“There is no new timeline, the timeline is the same,” said Sacco. “He is still from week to week. The good news is that he skates alone, that's positive. The next step, when he joins our team, is to drive with us as a group. “
