If it feels like a different player is making his debut every game, that’s because a different player has made his debut every game. Robert Bortuzzo has been placed on the IR due to a hit sustained in Friday night’s 8-0 loss to the Colorado Avalanche, so Carl Gunnarsson will be slotted in alongside Vince Dunn on the third pairing.
Head coach Craig Berube has also made some alterations to the lines after the loss. Zach Sanford is on the top line with Ryan O’Reilly and David Perron, while Jordan Kyrou is on the second with Jaden Schwartz and Brayden Schenn.
