Bruins at Blues projected lines: Leddy returns

Photo by Brian Babineau/NHLI via Getty ImagesThe last time that the Boston Bruins were in St. Louis, it was the 2019 Stanley Cup Final. Both teams look very different now. Boston is without Zdeno Chara and Tuukka Rask, two long time Bruins whose departure changed the team’s core deeply.

The Blues are without their Cup winning defensive pairing of Alex Pietrangelo and Jay Bouwmeester, perhaps the biggest difference between now and 2019. But there are many many more, if you look at tonight’s lines from stlblues.com:
