Flyers vs Bruins Preseason Preview: Where to Watch and Lineups

The Philadelphia Flyers look for a bounce back win after their loss to the Washington Capitals in Hershey on Monday night. This will be the Flyers second out of four preseason games and are looking to get their first win.

The Flyers did lose forward Denver Barkey in the Monday night loss with an upper body injury. Though head coach Rick Tocchet did not seem to be too concerned with the severity of the injury expecting Barkey to return to the lineup soon.

This now gives some fringe or younger players a chance to get a look in a real NHL game setting who are looking to crack the roster.

Game time is 7 p.m.
