Recent reports from Bruins Insider have surface suggesting Boston Bruins defenceman Parker Wotherspoon will be booked for some revenge tonight.

During the Rangers first preseason game against the Boston Bruins, defenseman Parker Wotherspoon was injured after a massive hit from Rangers forward Brennan Othmann.

Ultimately making Wotherspoon go down the tunnel and miss the rest of the first period.

As the beginning of the second period started, Wotherspoon was on the Boston Bruins bench plotting his revenge for when he got back on the ice.

As the second period was coming to an end, there was a bit of scrum and Wotherspoon instantly went after Othmann and I fight broke out between the two of them. Click here to see fight.

Well tonight both players might be looking to get their payback, Othmann may be looking to get the upper hand this time around, while Wotherspoon may be looking to get him back for the hit that sidelined him. As both players are in tonight's lineup.
