The Bruins (7-6-0) are undefeated in the month of November, following a mediocre first month of their 2014-15 season, as they dumped the Senators, 4-2, last Saturday at TD Garden. The B’s will again look to keep the home crowd happy Tuesday (7 p.m., NESN) with the 4-2-3 Florida Panthers in town.

Florida has been led by Brad Boyes (two goals, three assists) and Jussi Jokinen (five assists) so far this season, offensively, and Roberto Luongo has been solid in net, owning a 4-2-2 record and sporting a 2.15 GAA.

It is not yet known if the Bruins will be without center David Krejci, who sat out Saturday’s win over Ottawa. According to WEEI.com’s D.J. Bean, Krejci was out due to a hip injury he’s been battling all season. Matt Fraser picked up the slack in Krejci’s absence as he popped in two of Boston’s four goals on the night.

The Bruins are home through the beginning of next week as they will host Edmonton Thursday and New Jersey next Monday.
