Bruins Panther projected lines, pairings: Brad Marchand not ready

The Boston Bruins will return to Home ICE on Tuesday and try to maintain its profit methods when an old friend returns to the TD Garden with the Florida Panthers.

Brad Marchand will return, but not on the ice.

Marchand stays out of the line -up after suffering an injury to the upper body before moving to the end of the trade. The BS only played one game without him, although it was a shutout victory over the Tampa Bay Lightning.

“It is Florida, Marchy in her team – he doesn’t play for us, I don’t think our focus should change very much. We just have to stay at the moment we did in Tampa on Saturday, ”said Bruins interim head coach Joe Sacco on Tuesday. “We’re back home for the first time since the trades, but I want our boys to use the energy in the building on our side tonight.”

Boston and Florida should drop the puck at 7 p.m. after covering it on NESN an hour before the game.

We have the projected lines and defensive pairings for both sides:

Boston Bruins (29-28-8)
Morgan Geekie – Pavel Zacha – David Pastrnak
