After pondering over this decision over the last few days, Cassidy decided to go back to Anton Khudobin for the third straight time. The league-leader in save percentage (.935) and the rest of the Boston Bruins go up against the Metropolitan Division-leading New Jersey Devils in their Thanksgiving Eve tilt in Newark.
With Khudobin in net, the Bruins are 5-0-2. Most recently, Khudobin, who also ranks fourth in goals against average among goalies with seven or more appearances (2.17), backstopped the Black and Gold to their first two-game win streak of the year after solid outings against the Kings and Sharks to close out the three-game California swing.
