The Bruins will continue their long road trip on Thursday when they face the Seattle Kraken at Climate Pledge Arena.

Boston will make some changes after the loss to the Winnipeg Jets.

“Joonas Korpisalo will be in net tonight … that was the plan going forward,” Bruins interim coach Joe Sacco said, according to a video provided by the team. “Marc McLaughlin will be out, Tyler Johnson will come in and Parker Wotherspoon will be in, Mason Lohrei will be out.”

After an hour of pregame coverage on NESN, Boston and Seattle are scheduled to drop the puck at 10:00 p.m. ET.
