Korpisalo will get the surprise start in Colorado on Wednesday, making his first appearance since Boston's season opener on October 8th. Korpisalo struggled in his Bruins debut, allowing six goals on 35 shots as Boston suffered a 6-4 defeat at the hands of the Panthers. He'll have his hands full again on Wednesday as Boston enters action as +115 underdogs in Denver.

Justin Brazeau and Morgan Geekie will serve as healthy scratches on Wednesday, allowing Max Jones and Riley Tufte to draw back into the Bruins' lineup. The 26-year-old Geekie has zero points a -4 plus/minus through four games this season. Geekie debuted with the Bruins last season, posting a career-high 39 points (17G / 22A) in 76 games.

Despite missing the entirety of training camp, and the first game of the season due to contract negotiations, the Bruins will turn to Swayman between the pipes for a third straight game on Monday against the Florida Panthers. The 26-year-old Swayman hasn't shown any rust early on, posting a 2.44 GAA and .914 SV% through two games (2-0-0). The Bruins, who lost to the Panthers 6-4 in their season opener, enter the action on Monday as -128 home favorites against a Panthers club without Aleksander Barkov (lower-body) and Matthew Tkachuk (illness).

Lohrei was a healthy scratch on Thursday but will rotate with Parker Wotherspoon again on Saturday. Lohrei struggled in the season opener, posting a minus-3 rating in 16:16 TOI.

The 20-year-old Poitras was having a strong rookie campaign last season before undergoing season-ending shoulder surgery in February. He had 15 points (5G / 10A0 in 33 games. He skated in full on Friday and has a strong possibility to make his debut vs. Los Angeles.

Swayman missed the entirety of training camp due to ongoing contract negotiations and finally joined the team to serve as their backup in their first game of the season on Tuesday, a 6-4 loss to the Florida Panthers. Jonas Koorpisalo struggled immensely in the loss, allowing six goals on 35 shots (.829 SV%), likely thrusting Swayman back into the starter's crease sooner than expected. Swayman cemented his place in the Bruins' crease last season after posting a tremendous 2.53 GAA and .916 SV% in 44 games (25-10-8), ultimately leading to his massive eight-year, $66 million ($8,250,000 AAV) contract extension.

Lohrei will draw out of the lineup on Thursday, allowing Parker Wotherspoon to make his season debut. The 23-year-old Lohrei suffered a -3 plus/minus in 16:16 time-on-ice in his season debut earlier this week.

With prolonged contract negotiations that kept Jeremy Swayman from participating in any preseason games, the Bruins will turn to Korpisalo in their season opener against the Florida Panthers on Tuesday. Korpisalo was acquired as part of a trade in the offseason that sent Linus Ullmark to the Ottawa Senators. The 30-year-old Korpisalo has shown flashes of brilliance in his career but has been mostly inconsistent, highlighted by a forgetful 2023-24 campaign with the Senators where he posted a 3.27 GAA and .890 SV% in 55 contests (21-26-4). The Bruins enter action as +137 road underdogs against the Panthers.

Minten suffered a high-ankle sprain in early September, causing him to miss the entirety of training camp and the preseason. The 20-year-old Minten appeared in four games with the Maple Leafs in 2023-24 before being returned to junior, but failed to pick up a point during his brief showing.

After prolonged contract negotiations kept Swayman out of the Bruins' training camp, the two sides finally reached an agreement on a massive eight-year contract extension worth $66 million over the weekend. Swayman cemented his part in the Bruins' crease last season after posting a tremendous 2.53 GAA and .916 SV% in 44 games (25-10-8). The American netminder is expected to see the majority of action between the crease for the Bruins this season but, despite returning to practice on Monday, will be backing up Joonas Korpisalo in the team's debut on Tuesday against the Florida Panthers.

Head coach Jim Montgomery told reporters that Poitras is still day-to-day and they aren't sure if he'll be ready for the season opener next Tuesday. If Poitras can't play, look for Cole Koepke to make his Bruins debut vs. the Panthers.

Lysell was "cut" from training camp on September 29th but GM Don Sweeney made it clear that day that Lysell could be called back up for Thursday or Saturday's preseason game. Lysell was first round pick in 2021 but has yet to appear in an NHL game. The 21-year-old had 50 points (15G / 35A) in 56 AHL games last year and should be in the mix for a middle-6 role in Boston this season.

Lindholm suffered an undisclosed injury on the first day of training camp and has yet to appear in a preseason game. His availability for Tuesday's game is a good sign that he'll be ready-to-go when the Bruins open their season on October 8th.

Minten suffered a high-ankle sprain at Toronto's Prospect Showdown last week and will not be ready for training camp. It is tough news for the 20-year-old center who is now without a timetable to return after originally having a shot to crack Toronto's opening-day roster. Minten appeared in four games with the Maple Leafs in 2023-24 before being returned to junior, but failed to pick up a point during his brief showing.

After a long offseason discussion period Oliver Wahlstrom will remain in New York after signing a one-year, $1 million contract extension with the Islanders.
