Boston Bruins News

The Bruins will turn to Korpisalo on Thursday in a meeting with his former team, the Ottawa Senators. Korpisalo was excellent against the Senators last season, posting a dazzling 0.62 GAA and .978 SV% in two appearances (1-1-0). The 31-year-old Finnish goalie is off to a shaky start this season, posting a 3.49 GAA and .882 SV% in six games (3-3-0). The Bruins enter Thursday's contest as +120 home underdogs against a Senators team off to a 6-5-1 start this season.

The 7-7-0 Bruins will turn to Swayman between the pipes on Tuesday against the New York Islanders. The 26-year-old Swayman was excellent in his most recent outing, saving 28 of 29 shots (.966 SV%) in a 2-1 win over the Carolina Hurricanes. He has a 3.14 GAA and .896 SV% in eight games this season (4-4-0). The Bruins enter Tuesday's contest as +140 road underdogs against an Islanders team riding a two-game winning streak.

Lindholm suffered a lower-body injury in Thursday's 4-3 win over the Buffalo Sabres, exiting the contest in the second period after playing only 9:37 time-on-ice. The 30-year-old Lindholm has nine points (4G / 5A) in 13 games this season. He will be sidelined week-to-week. Marat Khusnutdinov has suited up as Boston's top-line center thus far during Lindholm's absence.

Coming off a disappointing one-sided 7-2 loss to the Ottawa Senators, the Bruins will change course on Thursday, turning to Korpisalo between the pipes against the Buffalo Sabres. The 31-year-old Korpisalo has seen a steady dose of action early in the 2025-26 season, but has failed to impress, posting a 3.62 GAA and .870 SV% in five games (2-3-0). The Bruins enter Thursday's contest as slight +104 home underdogs against a Sabres team with points in four straight games (2-0-2).

Lindholm has been in and out of the lineup with injuries lately. His absence from the morning skate on Thursday was concerning, but it was not injury-related, as he was away from the team to welcome the birth of his child. The 31-year-old Lindholm is averaging 16:04 time-on-ice and has one assist in four games this season.

With Hampus Lindholm's activation from Injured Reserve, Boston has reassigned Callahan to the Providence Bruins (AHL). The 26-year-old Callahan has appeared in three games for Boston this season, scoring zero points while averaging 16:27 time-on-ice.

Hampus Lindholm did not play last Sunday, supposedly given an extra day of maintenance after returning from an injury, but has been sidelined since, missing five consecutive games. The 31-year-old Lindholm is averaging 15:04 time-on-ice and has a -3 plus/minus in three games this season. Michael Callahan was assigned to Providence (AHL) in a corresponding move.

The Bruins were embarrassed in a 7-2 loss to the Ottawa Senators last night and will try to rebound on Tuesday, turning to Korpisalo in net against the New York Islanders. The 31-year-old Korpisalo salvaged a victory in his first game of the season but has otherwise performed poorly, posting an ugly 4.03 GAA and .845 SV% in four games (1-3-0). The 4-7-0 Bruins will be desperate to return to the win column on Tuesday, entering the game as +128 home underdogs against a red-hot Islanders team with points in five straight (4-0-1).

With Jeremy Swayman occupying Boston's crease for the start of their back-to-back Monday, Joonas Korpisalo is expected to take over the crease vs. the Islanders on Tuesday. Boston's back up netminder will look to snap a personal three-game losing streak which has saw his SV% plummet to .845 SV% this season alongside his 4.03 GAA. He is expected to host Ilya Sorokin and Islanders on Tuesday, who had their four-game win streak snapped on Saturday with a loss to Philadelphia.

The Bruins snapped a six-game losing skid (0-6-0) with an impressive 3-2 win over the Colorado Avalanche on Saturday and hope to stay in the win column on Monday, turning to Swayman between the pipes in the front end of a back-to-back. Despite the team's losing record, Swayman has been serviceable between the pipes, posting a solid 2.85 GAA and .910 SV% in six games (3-3-0). Still, the Bruins enter Monday's contest as +152 road underdogs against an Ottawa Senators team outscoring their opposition 9-2 during a two-game winning streak.
