Description

I have seen a lot of people keeping Coyle on the third line opening night and that probably won't happen, the Bruins loving having Coyle and Bjork to play on the first line as subs, and with the recent emergence of Studnicka the Bruins center depth allows them to do this. These are their best lines and unless something changes in training camp, these will most likely be their lines.

If you think the season will start before 1/15/21, this is reasonable, although i certainly think swapping grizz and chara, and coyle and studnicka would be more likely. If it starts after January 15th marchand likely plays.

ya true but I can also see them going with the depth approach, I don't agree with it and I think Macavoy would be much better without a pylon of a partner but they like to put them together so we'll see.

I think Bergy will get a lil break, maybe 3rd line minutes. I'm thinking maybe 3 lines get pretty much even time.
Something like:

Debrusk - Krejci - Smith
Bjork - Coyle - Kase
Stud - Bergy - Kurls
Ritchie - Lindholm - Wags
