The Boston Bruins will try to extend their winning streak to four games when they host the Florida Panthers at TD Garden on Sunday at 1 p.m. ET. Boston enters at 12–4–1 and Florida at 9–6–2. It is their first meeting of the season.

The Bruins have had two days off since beating Pittsburgh 6–2 on Thursday. Florida is playing for the second day in a row after losing 4–3 to Washington on Saturday.

Michael Eyssimont is projected to play alongside Fraser Minten and Morgan Geekie for Boston after being recalled from Providence. The Bruins placed James Hagens on injured reserve Saturday. Florida forward Sandis Vilmanis left Saturday’s game in the first period and is listed with an upper-body injury on the NHL’s projected lineup.

Florida won the teams’ playoff series in both 2023 and 2024.
