BostonBruins.com — Bruins defenseman Johnny Boychuk will get to skate against his former team today as the Colorado Avalanche visit the TD Garden.

Boychuk has been paired with Zdeno Chara in the early going, which significantly increases his fantasy hockey value at even strength. Last season he scored only a goal and 16 points over 69 games. He should be able to improve on those totals but likely won't see too much PP time.
