Bruins lines vs. Capitals: Coyle probable, Smith to the second line

Didn’t you have fun on Saturday night? Well it’s time to do it again!

In preparation to battle the Capitals a second time, the Bruins will tinker with their lineup.

Head Coach Bruce Cassidy expects Charlie Coyle to play after missing Sunday’s practice with an upper-body injury, but Coyle is officially listed as a game-time decision.

Craig Smith will bump up to the second line, skating alongside Nick Ritchie and David Krejci. Karson Kuhlman will slot in on the fourth line, to the right of Anders Bjork and Sean Kuraly.

Jaroslav Halak will start in net.
