The Bruins are expected to start defending Vezina Trophy winner Tim Thomas (above) in net tonight against the Penguins according to the Boston Globe. Thomas is 4-6-1 this season with a 2.44 goals against average and a .916 save percentage.
In his career against the Penguins, Thomas is 2-3-1 with a 2.81 goals against average and .904 save percentage.
Note:
-The Bruins, who are almost as beat up as the Penguins with injuries to vital players such as Milan Lucic and Marc Savard, were without offensive defenseman Derek Morris at this morning's skate. There is no word yet on his status.
In 14 games this season, Morris nine points (one goal, eight assists) and is a minus-1. Four of his points have been scored on the power play this season.
Update:
-Morris is probable. He skipped the practice due to an illness.
