Fleury will start for the first time since November 23rd. He was away from the team due to a personal reason but then sat as Malcolm Subban's backup for a few games as he got back up to speed.

Fleury has been away from the team for over a week while he's back home following the death of his father.

Gaunce had one assist in 9:10 TOI in his Bruins debut on Wednesday but will be replaced by Jack Studnicka in the lineup on Friday.

Johansson missed the last seven games with an upper-body injury he suffered on November 9th in Sweden.

Gaunce was called up last week but did not make his Bruins debut. In 14 AHL games, the 25-year-old has collected six goals and five assists (11 points). He could make his debut on their two-game road-trip with both Patrice Bergeron and Brett Ritchie both out.

Fleury gave up five goals on 26 shots in the Golden Knights loss to the Blackhawks on Wednesday.

The Flames are also struggling, losing three in a row and only scoring three goals in those games.
Washington played with 11 forwards on Friday but Boyd comes up to dress as the 12th forward on Saturday.

Tyler Lewington went down to Hershey to make room for Boyd.
