Brad Marchand will be back in action Saturday night in Ottawa after a suspension to watch the Boston Bruins' last three games from the press box.

Marchand, who earned his ban by upending Senators defenseman Mark Borowiecki last Tuesday, is expected to return to his usual spot on Boston's top line for the rematch.

The Bruins dominated the teams' most recent meeting, scoring four third-period goals en route to a 7-3 victory at TD Garden. A Senators win Saturday would bring them into a tie with the B's for the Eastern Conference's first wild-card spot.

Boston did not hold a morning skate after playing Friday night in New Jersey, leaving some question marks as to who will bump out of the lineup to make room for Marchand. Here's a look at what the lines and pairings might look like:

BOSTON BRUINS (21-14-4)
Brad Marchand -- Patrice Bergeron -- David Pastrnak
Matt Beleskey -- Ryan Spooner -- Loui Eriksson
Frank Vatrano -- Joonas Kemppainen -- Jimmy Hayes
Zac Rinaldo/Landon Ferraro -- Max Talbot -- Brett Connolly

Zdeno Chara -- Zach Trotman
Torey Krug -- Kevan Miller
Dennis Seidenberg -- Colin Miller

OTTAWA SENATORS (19-6-6)
