The Boston Bruins are gearing up for the 2024-25 NHL season opener against the Florida Panthers, with Joonas Korpisalo likely taking the starting goalie position. This comes as Jeremy Swayman remains unsigned as a restricted free agent and has missed training camp and preseason games.

Head coach Jim Montgomery confirmed Korpisalo's strong performance in camp, stating he would lead the team onto the ice for Game 1. Even if Swayman signs soon, he may not be ready in time due to the lack of practice and game experience.
