Per the Washington Post’s Alex Prewitt, Mike Green makes his return to the lineup in Boston as Barry Trotz’s team looks to bounce back after a late let-down in the season opener. Expect the following lines and pairs in front of Braden Holtby in net:
Alex Ovechkin – Nicklas Backstrom – Eric Fehr
Marcus Johansson – Andre Burakovsky – Troy Brouwer
Jason Chimera – Brooks Laich – Joel Ward
Liam O`Brien – Evgeny Kuznetsov – Chris Brown
That leaves John Erskine, Jack Hillen, and Michael Latta as the healthy scratches, Jay Beagle, Aaron Volpatti, and Tom Wilson out with short-term injuries, and Dmitry Orlov still shelved with a wrist injury.
