The Boston Bruins returned home from their road tilt with the Buffalo Sabres to take on the Winnipeg Jets. The Jets won the first meeting in a beatdown.

The Bruins will be making some interesting changes to their lineup for this matchup against Winnipeg. Most notably, star defenseman Charlie McAvoy will return to the Bruins' lineup against Winnipeg, with Mason Lohrei as his partner.

The Boston Bruins suffered an embarrassing 7-2 loss to the Buffalo Sabres on Jan. 28. With the Sabres at the bottom of the Eastern Conference standings, this was a winnable game for Boston, but they were blown out instead.

Their absence was evident in a disgusting loss against one of the worst teams in the NHL. Boston has always lived by the next-man-up mantra, but it was non-existent against the Sabres. To be fair, the Bruins entered the game with a 5-1-1 record in the previous seven games without McAvoy or Lindholm.
