The Bruins will have Elias Lindholm back in their lineup for the third game of their road trip Sunday and they shook up their lines to accommodate him.

Against the Sharks in San Jose, Pavel Zacha stays at center on the first line with David Pastrnak and Marat Khustnutdinov, who moved back to left wing.

Elias Lindholm, who’d been out since Oct. 30 with a lower-body injury, is now the second-line center between Morgan Geekie and Alex Steeves. The third line of Fraser Minten between Tanner Jeannot and Mark Kastelic remains the same. Riley Tufte is back on the fourth line left wing with Sean Kuraly and Mikey Eyssimont.

Matej Blumel will be a healthy scratch.

Jeremy Swayman is in goal for the second straight game.
