The Boston Bruins will look to snap a two-game losing streak when they face off with the Philadelphia Flyers on the road on Saturday. While the Bruins will be looking to get back into the win column, the Flyers will be looking to extend a two-game win streak that has seen them improve to 4-6-1 this season.

Ahead of the game, the Bruins have just one player listed on their injury report, defenseman Alec Regula, who has been on the team's injured reserve list since early October.

Since undergoing offseason knee surgery, there has been no word on when he'll return to action for Boston, however, the hope is he'll return before the end of the year.

With that in mind, the team's projected lines today are expected to be as follows:

Forwards:

  1. LW Brad Marchand - C Elias Lindholm - RW David Pastrnak
  2. LW Morgan Geekie - C Pavel Zacha - RW Matthew Poitras
  3. LW John Beecher - C Mark Kastelic - RW Cole Koepke
  4. LW Max Jones - C Charlie Coyle - RW Justin Brazeau

Defense:

  1. Charlie McAvoy - Mason Lohrei
  2. Hampus Lindholm - Brandon Carlo
  3. Nikita Zadorov - Andrew Peeke

Goalies:

  • Jeremy Swayman
  • Joonas Korpisalo

Powerplay:

  1. Pavel Zacha, Elias Lindholm, Brad Marchand, David Pastrnak, Charlie McAvoy
  2. Justin Brazeau, Charlie Coyle, Morgan Geekie, Mason Lohrei, Hampus Lindholm

Penalty Kill:

  1. Charlie Coyle, John Beecher, Hampus Lindholm, Brandon Carlo
  2. Elias Lindholm, Pavel Zacha, Nikita Zadorov, Charlie McAvoy

Looking at Boston Bruins' two-game losing streak as well as upcoming games

After an above-average start to the season that saw the team win three of their first five games, the Boston Bruins then lost three of their next four games, leading up to their current two-game losing streak.

On Tuesday, the team was shut out by the Philadelphia Flyers on their home ice, a surprising turn of events considering the Flyers have struggled to find consistency this season. Following Tuesday's loss to the Flyers, the Bruins then dropped an 8-2 meeting with the Hurricanes on Thursday.

Following Saturday's game against the Flyers, Boston will return home for a one-game stint to play the Seattle Kraken on Sunday in the second leg of a back-to-back.

The team will then hit the road on Tuesday for a road game with the Toronto Maple Leafs, before a two-game home stretch to close out the week that will see them host the Flames on Thursday and the Senators on Saturday.
