Bruins apprehend significant lineup change due to unexpected health update

I’m not going to mess around : the Boston Bruins and head coach Jim Montgomery announced after practice on Friday that goalie Linus Ullmark was a game-time decision for Game 3 later tonight in the first round series against the Florida Panthers, per insider Elliotte Friedman of Sportsnet. 

Ullmark was absent from practice in the morning after turning aside 24of 29 shots against the Panthers in Game 2’s 6-3 loss.

All eyes will be on the warmup in a few hours to see if Boston will turn to Jeremy Swayman for the third contest of the series.

The Bruins and Panthers are tied 1-1 in the first round.

More to come as the story develops.
