The Boston Bruins are facing elimination after losing games 5 and 6 against the Florida Panthers. Despite this, Jim Montgomery is determined to make changes and improve their performance.

Linus Ullmark, who is expected to win the Vezina trophy and potentially receive Hart votes, has not been performing at his usual level in the playoffs. It is unclear whether he is nursing an injury or simply off his game, but he needs to step up his performance.

To increase their chances of survival, the Bruins are likely to start backup Jeremy Swayman. He is considered one of the best backups in the league and could be the key to a Bruins victory.

The team's lineup, according to Fluto Shinzawa of The Athletic, will likely be as follows:

Marchand-Bergeron-DeBrusk
Zacha-Krejci-Pastrnak
Hall-Coyle-Bertuzzi
Frederic-Nosek-Hathaway

Grzelcyk-McAvoy
Lindholm-Carlo
Forbort-Orlov

Swayman

However, Jim Montgomery has not confirmed this lineup and is keeping tight-lipped about his plans. It has been reported that Connor Clifton and Nick Foligno will not play and will instead watch from the press box.

The Bruins find themselves in an unexpected position, and hopefully, these changes will help them secure a victory and continue their playoff run.
