Boston Bruins game preview
The Bruins have been on a rollercoaster so far winning only two of their five preseason games and will face an in-form Kings squad. Ending the preseason on a high note would be huge for the Bruins' morale heading into the new campaign.
Boston Bruins injuries
Max Jones, Alec Regula and Brad Marchand are all sidelined due to different injuries. They are all reportedly short-term absentees and could return to the ice soon.
LA Kings game preview
The Kings have bounced back since their preseason opener defeat against the Utah Hockey Club. They have since won against the Vegas Golden Knights followed by back-to-back victories against the Anaheim Ducks.
The Kings are hopeful that they'll have two more impressive performances and head into the regular season on a positive note.
LA Kings injuries
Defenseman Drew Doughty and winger Arthur Kaliyev are both sidelined. With Doughty scheduled to have surgery soon and Kaliyev with a broken clavicle, no return date has been set for them.
Bruins and Kings key players
Mark Kastelic has shined for the Bruins as he has scored two goals so far while David Pastrnak is expected to step up in Marchand's absence.
Kevin Fiala and Quinton Byfield have both had good starts and contributed three points each. With the return of last season's top points scorer Adrian Kempe, the Kings could potentially have a special season.
