Bruins' Ryan Spooner: Healthy scratch Thursday

Spooner didn't take part in line rushes during pregame warm=ups, indicating he'll be a healthy scratch for Thursday's home game against the Devils.

Analysis:

Spooner has failed to tally a point over his last two games, and with Patrice Bergeron returning to the lineup Thursday, there isn't any room in Boston's starting forward group for the 24-year-old Canadian. With Bergeron back in the lineup, David Backes will slide down to the second line and back into his natural position at right wing.
