Trent Frederic will return to the Bruins lineup after missing two games with an illness. Sacco said there could be other game-time lineup changes. After Wednesday’s loss at New Jersey, Sacco said Swayman was “dealing with something minor” after he replaced him with Joonas Korpisalo in the third period.
