The Boston Bruins will play the New Jersey Devils tonight at the Prudential Center. This is an important competition for the Original Six club, as a win would allow them to pass the Tampa Bay Lightning, Ottawa Senators and Montreal Canadiens in the standings.

For this contest against the Devils, the Bruins’ forward group will have a notable change. Mark Kastelic was placed on injured reserve yesterday, so he won’t be in the lineup against New Jersey. With this, recent calls and other gritty forward Max Jones will replace him in the lineup on the fourth line, with John Beecher and Justin Brazeau as his linemates.

Here is the Bruins’ full projected lineup now.

Morgan Geekie, Pavel Zacha, David Pastrnak

Oliver Wahlstrom, Elias Lindholm, Vinni Lettieri
