Some news, notes and quotes before puck drops at 2pm…

- Linus Ullmark gets the start in net and my god he's been red hot. 20-1-1 with a 1.90 GAA and .938 SV%. His 20 wins this year lead the NHL as well.

I can't get over how sick his set up is, Lord Byron pads and Moog inspired mask. 

- Here are the (unconfirmed) lines for today.

Marchand - Bergeron - DeBrusk

Zacha - Krejci - Pastrnak

Hall - Coyle - Smith

Greer - Frederic -Foligno

Trent Frederic will likely stay centering the 4th line with Tomas Nosek likely out. Craig Smith on the right side with Taylor Hall and Charlie Coyle. If Nosek does suit up it'll likely be one of Greer or Smith out with Frederic returning to the 3rd line. TBD.

On D

Lindholm-McAvoy

Grzelcyk - Carlo

Forbort - Clifton

- On the flip side Tristan Jarry gets the start in net for the Pens who are a little banged up and will be without Kris Letang. 

- Charlie Coyle snuck into the Green Monster to watch the Winter Classic at Fenway in 2010, and 13 years later he's suiting up to play at the same venue. Pretty cool story for the local kid. Hoping the 3rd line can do some damage today. 

- David Pastrnak confirmed the Bruins will be dressing up prior to the occasion (they went full Peaky Blinders in 2019 and retro for the Lake Tahoe game in 2021). Insert Bart Scott CAN'T WAIT gif here.

It's a great day to win a hockey game. 

ps if you're in the area Chiclets is doing a meet up at Game On! See you there.
