Bruins center David Krejci will miss his second straight game when the B’s aim for a 3-1 series lead in Sunday’s Game 4 at FLA Live Arena, Bruins coach Jim Montgomery confirmed in his pregame media availability.
A late scratch from last Friday’s Game 3, and with the team calling it an upper-body injury, the Bruins put their already-blended lines into more of a blender, which left them with Trent Frederic in Krejci’s projected spot on the B’s third line and with Taylor Hall and Nick Foligno’s as Frederic’s wingers. The trickle-around effect of that move saw the Bruins plug Charlie Coyle between Brad Marchand and Jake DeBrusk, while Pavel Zacha served as the center for Tyler Bertuzzi and David Pastrnak.
