Brown has been recalled from Providence (AHL) to provide Boston with some center-ice depth as Pavel Zacha has been placed on the injured reserve. The 31-year-old Brown played eight games with Boston earlier this season, scoring one point (0G / 1A).

Wotherspoon has been recalled from the Providence Bruins of the AHL as Charlie McAvoy has been placed on the injured reserve. Wotherspoon played three games for the Bruins earlier this season, recording one point (0G / 1A) while averaging 13:51 time-on-ice.

Zacha exited Saturday's contest against the Arizona Coyotes with an upper-body injury after playing only 6:42 time-on-ice and has now retroactively been placed on the injured reserve. Zacha has centred the top line and top powerplay unit all season, scoring 19 points (8G / 11A) in 26 games, averaging 18:22 time-on-ice. Morgan Geekie has replaced him, centring the top line during Zacha's absence and assuming duties on the top powerplay.

McAvoy has not played since December 7th, missing two games, and has now been retroactively placed on the injured reserve. Before his injury, McAvoy had four points (0G / 4A) in his last five games. In a corresponding move defenseman Parker Wotherspoon has been recalled from the Providence Bruins of the AHL.

Kastelic has not played since November 2nd when he suffered a high-ankle sprain that has subsequently kept him out of the lineup for approximately six weeks. Kastelic had zero points in nine games before his injury, averaging 6:55 time-on-ice. At morning skate on Thursday, he skated on the fourth line with Parker Kelly and Rourke Chartier.

After serving as the backup for three straight games, Korpisalo will likely start for his third consecutive game on Thursday. The Senators coaching staff has been quick to deviate to a different goaltender after a poor performance but will stick with Korpisalo on Thursday despite allowing four goals on 28 shots (.857 SV%) in a 4-1 loss to the Carolina Hurricanes. In addition, Korpisalo has lost three of his last four contests (1-3-0) and has only one quality start in the bunch, posting a .882 SV%. That said, the Senators are -118 road favourites against a St. Louis Blues team that has lost four straight, being outscored 20-10.

Lettieri had four goals, eight point and four PIMs in 10 games with Iowa (AHL) and has been called up back to Minnesota where he has spent most of this season. The 28-year-old is in his sixth NHL season and has two goals, an assist, four PIMs, 15 SOG and a -3 plus/minus in 13 games played.

After consecutive poor performances led him to serve as the backup for three straight games, Korpisalo rebounded on Saturday, saving 30 of 31 shots (.968 SV%) in a 5-1 win over the Detroit Red Wings and will look to build on that performance as the starter on Tuesday. Korpisalo has strung together stretches of solid play this season, but is still showcasing a less-than-ideal 3.22 GAA and .903 SV% through 14 games (6-6-0). The Senators have won three of their last four (3-1-0) but are +117 home underdogs against the Carolina Hurricanes, who have lost four straight, being outscored 15-7.

McAvoy played only 15:53 time-on-ice on Thursday before exiting the game with a shoulder injury. The 25-year-old defenseman did not play on Saturday and has been ruled out for Wednesday's matchup against the New Jersey Devils. His status remains to be determined for the team's next contest on Friday against the New York Islanders. Kevin Shattenkirk has assumed McAvoy's duties on the top powerplay in his absence.

Zacha has centred the top line and top powerplay unit all season, scoring 19 points (8G / 11A) in 26 games, averaging 18:22 time-on-ice. Morgan Geekie is expected to center the top line between Jake DeBrusk and David Pastrnak during Zacha's absence and assume duties on the top powerplay.
