In the second game of a back-to-back, the biggest change for the Boston Bruins will be their choice in goaltender, as Anton Khudobin will get the start Thursday against the Washington Capitals at TD Garden. The decision had been made prior to Wednesday’s game against the Detroit Red Wings, with Tuukka Rask getting Detroit, and Khudobin handling the Caps. It will be a big test for the Bruins’ backup. After winning four straight starts beginning Nov. 16, the 31-year-old was yanked in his most recent appearance, allowing four goals on 14 shots against the Nashville Predators on Dec. 4. Opposing Khudobin will be Caps netminder Braden Holtby, a wi... NESN.com

Celtics Roster Reset: Projected Starting Five, Rotation Amid Busy Offseason
Share this: These aren’t your grandfather’s Boston Celtics. Scratch that — as far as familiar lineups go, these aren’t anyone’s Celtics. Boston entered the summer with the potential for a roster overhaul, and that’s exactly what we’ve gotten: Avery Bradley, Kelly Olynyk and other ancillary pieces from the Celtics’ 2016-17 club are out the door, making room for Gordon Hayward, Marcus Morris, Aron Baynes and four draft picks, highlighted by No. 3 overall selection Jayson Tatum. We still don’t know if president of basketball operations Danny Ainge has more roster moves in store. For the most part, though, the major work is done. That begs the question: What will this team look like in the 2017-18 season? It’s a simple question with a very
Red Sox Vs. Royals Lineup: Sam Travis, Deven Marrero Return For Boston
Share this: The Boston Red Sox’s lineup will have a much different look for Game 2 of the three-game series against the Kansas City Royals at Kauffman Stadium. Rookies Sam Travis and Deven Marrero make their return to Boston’s lineup as a result of a pair of roster moves. Pablo Sandoval was placed on the 10-day disabled list with a left inner ear infection and pitcher Austin Maddox has been optioned to Triple-A Pawtucket. With lefty Mike Strahm taking the hill for the Royals, the Red Sox opted to sit a few of their left-handed bats. Travis will take over the first base duties in place of Mitch Moreland, while Chris Young gets the nod in left field instead of Andrew Benintendi. Boston also will
Berkshire Bank Hockey Night In New England: Projected Bruins-Panthers Lineups
The Boston Bruins will be looking to take advantage of a struggling Florida Panthers team when the two clubs face off at TD Garden on Saturday afternoon. After hitting a four-game slump in mid-March, the Bruins finished out the month strong by collecting three straight wins, giving them a slightly stronger hold on the second wild-card spot in the Eastern Conference with a three-point lead over the Tampa Bay Lightning. The B’s also are only one point back of the Toronto Maple Leafs for third place in the Atlantic Division. The Panthers, on the other hand, are riding a three-game skid into their matchup on Boston’s home ice and are well out of
Brad Stevens Knows Celtics Must ‘Find Some Answers’ For Talented Bucks
BOSTON — The Boston Celtics had only seen the Milwaukee Bucks once before their 103-100 loss Wednesday night, but the Bucks clearly present a challenge to the Celtics. Milwaukee’s ability to put rangy, athletic lineups on the floor bothered Boston for most of the night, especially during the first half. And if the two teams were to meet in the NBA playoffs, the Celtics will need to figure out how to attack the Bucks. “They’ve been one of the best teams in the East over the last month and a half,” Celtics coach Brad Stevens said. “So, I’m not surprised by their level and their level is really high. When we go small
