Tonight in Boston, the Columbus Blue Jackets will face a beat up Bruins squad. That hasn’t seemed to stop the B’s as they have won eight of their last 10 including coming off a 3-0 road win against Tampa Bay this weekend.
The Bruins will be without star center Patrice Bergeron who is still recovering from a broken foot. The Jackets should thank their lucky stars they don’t have to face a top line of Marchand – Bergeron – Pasternak. They also will be without forward David Backes.
Rookie phenom defenseman Charlie McAvoy is still injured as well as his partner Zdeno Chara.
