As the game between the Boston Bruins and the San Jose Sharks reached its halfway point, head coach Jim Montgomery decided to implement some significant line changes. Despite holding a 2-0 lead, Montgomery remained committed to keeping the Bruins' performance at its peak.
A notable adjustment was the return of Brad Marchand to the first line, reuniting him with his star linemates. Simultaneously, James van Riemsdyk (JVR) received a promotion to the second line, while Jake DeBrusk was relocated to the third line.
Montgomery's strategic changes brought renewed vigor to the Bruins' roster, creating an air of unpredictability for the Sharks. While already in control, these adjustments underlined the Bruins' determination to maintain their dominance and secure a resounding victory.
