Boston Bruins captain Brad Marchand’s family was at TD Garden during Saturday night's game against the Colorado Avalanche.

After a hard-fought 2-0 win against the Ottawa Senators on Jan. 23, the Boston Bruins returned to practice on Jan. 24. Bruins star goalie Jeremy Swayman participated in practice after not dressing against the Senators due to an injury.

On Jan. 23, Boston recalled goalie Michael DiPietro from their AHL affiliate, the Providence Bruins. This indicated that Swayman would be forced to miss time, and Sacco gave a new injury update about No. 1 before their contest against the Ottawa Senators.

The Avalanche will have newly acquired Martin Necas and Jack Drury in the lineup. Colorado is averaging 3.29 goals per game, eighth in the NHL in 2024-25.

Jeremy Swayman, whom B’s coach Joe Sacco pulled after two periods on Wednesday in New Jersey partly because he was “dealing with something minor,” was not available for Thursday’s pivotal game against the Ottawa Senators and Michael DiPietro was recalled from Providence.

Swayman made 27 saves on 28 shots in Saturday's 3-1 win over the Avalanche.

Coach Joe Sacco is "cautiously optimistic" the goalie, who sustained the injury against New Jersey Wednesday night, will be available to play against Colorado on Saturday

If the Bruins are going to hang on to a playoff spot in the Eastern Conference, Jeremy Swayman will be the reason why.

And it won’t stop any time soon. Swayman will be leading Boston through a fight to even get into the playoffs, a rare situation for a perennial contender. He will also be playing for the United States against Canada, Sweden and Finland in the 4 Nations Face-Off in Montreal and Boston from Feb. 12-20.

The Bruins, who had eight shots on goal through two periods, tied the game 1-1 when Geekie scored 25 seconds into the third period. Geekie then gave the Bruins a 2-1 lead at 5:44. Pastrnak controlled the puck behind the Colorado net, skated around Wedgewood's right side, and found Geekie on the far post for the backdoor tap-in goal.
