It’d be a bit of a stretch to call it a true controversy, but there are segments of Bruins fans who are a bit miffed to see Jack Studnicka come out of the lineup after what had been a pretty strong showing thus far.
Studnicka is coming out so that Nick Ritchie can go in, so naturally, some of the ire is being pointed in Ritchie’s direction.
In his pre-game press conference today, Bruins coach Bruce Cassidy offered some thoughts on his lineup shuffling.
“[Studnicka] got better as the game went on,” Cassidy said.
