Ference out, Wheeler in.

It is confirmed by Boston Bruins coach Claude Julien that Andrew Ference will not play tonight's game against the Hurricanes but former Gopher Blake Wheeler will. The Bruins need to come out and play with some desperation but with discipline. The Bruins need to have an aggressive in your face fore check. Milian Lucic needs to play with the nasty edge that he had against the Habs. The Bruins need to get pucks deep and play a high pressure game as well.

*Claude Julien confirmed that Andrew Ference will not play tonight. Shane Hnidy, a healthy scratch for the first three games, will be making his series debut tonight.

* Blake Wheeler will play tonight. Wheeler skated with David Krejci and Michael Ryder during the morning skate.
