Game preview: Bruins vs Capitals tonight.

The Boston Bruins will host their first preseason home game tonight as they host the Washington Capitals at TD Garden. It's important to note that this early in the preseason both teams will be showcasing significantly diminished rosters. The Capitals will leave their star players Alexander Ovechkin and Nicholas Backstrom at home as they give some of their prospects more ice time to earn a spot on the team's roster. The most important thing for Bruins fans to watch tonight will be the performances of Simon Gagne and Ryan Spooner, two players hoping to earn a spot on the Bruins fourth line for the 2014-2015 season. Spooner had a great goal last night, but was also on the ice for two of the Habs three goals and is looking to show that he isn't a defensive liability for Boston. In case you missed the Spooner goal from last night you can see it below.
