Peverley/By S. Bradley

BOSTON — At least for the Bruins’ warm-up before tonight’s Game 4 of the Stanley Cup Final, Rich Peverley was Nathan Horton’s replacement.

Expect the veteran winger to share first-line right-wing duties with others while Horton is out with a severe concussion. But it looks like Peverley will get first crack at the job.

Here are the forward lines and D pairs as per the warm-up:

Lucic-Krejci-Peverley

Marchand-Bergeron-Recchi

Ryder-Kelly-Seguin

Paille-Campbell-Thornton

Chara-Seidenberg

Kaberle-McQuaid

Ference-Boychuk
