Players To Watch:

Boston – Mason Lohrei has been impressive since a forgettable game and a scratch in the following contest. Lohrei has 4 points in the 3 games since his scratch. The young LD has continued to build his confidence and is giving Boston production which was a focus for the Bruins’ defensemen going into the season.

Utah – Captain Clayton Keller has 7 points (4g, 3a) for Utah. Keller has combined with Center Barrett Hayton, and Left Wing Nick Schmaltz to be one of the highest-scoring lines in the league with 19 total points in 5 games.
