Niemi will be in the crease Thursday against the Bruins, Kevin Kurz of CSN Bay Area reports. Alex Stalock looks to be ready to receive a start if needed, but coach Todd McLellan will stick with Niemi after he yielded just one goal on 29 shots in a win over the Flyers on Tuesday. He hasn't shown a ton of consistency outing-to-outing, but he'll probably still be the favorite to come away with the win against a Bruins squad in the middle of a West Coast road trip.
