Projected lines, defensive pairings for the Bruins-Kraken matchup


Projected lines, defensive pairings for the Bruins-Kraken matchup

The Bruins will round out their first back-to-back game of the season on Sunday night when they host the Kraken at TD Garden.

Boston earned arguably its best win of the season with a 3-0 win at Philadelphia on Saturday. The decisive triumph came just three days after the Bruins were blanked by the Flyers at TD Garden.

With Joonas Korpisalo set to take a well-deserved break after his 20-save performance at the Wells Fargo Center, Jeremy Swayman should be between the posts against Seattle. Boston's best goaltender will look to bounce back after allowing six goals against the Carolina Hurricanes in Raleigh on Thursday night.

Here are the projected lines and defensive pairings for Sunday's Kraken-Bruins game:

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
