Preview:

All lines above are subject to change, this is being written at 10pm yesterday because GUESS WHO'S GOING TO CANADA TODAY. Yup. Sorry (not sorry). Enjoy your weekend.

On the Sabres side - looks like same old same old, although it appears Tyler Myers will return to the lineup. Can't wait to see John Scott look like a pylon, as per usual.

On the Bruins' side - haven't heard anything about different lines or anything, so have to assume things will be par for the course tonight.

Key for the Bruins will be maintaining strong puck possession, as they have for every game to start the season.

Let's watch a video:

This was cool.
