Khusnutdinov was the 37th overall pick of the Minnesota Wild in the 2020 NHL Entry Draft. The 21-year-old will make his NHL debut on Thursday and his professional North American debut. He has exclusively played in the KHL this point and had 20 points (6G / 14A) in 49 games with Sochi HC this season.

Jayden Struble will be a healthy scratch on Thursday, allowing Harris to return to the lineup after a one-game absence. Harris has been held off the scoresheet in all but one of his last 13 games, a two-point effort (1G / 1A) on February 27th.

Jeannot was activated off Injured Reserve in February and returned to the lineup on February 13th but was limited to only 5:44 time-on-ice before re-aggravating his lower-body injury. He has played in only one game since January 6th. The 26-year-old bruising winger has filled his bottom-six role well this season with 12 points (6G/6A), 52 SOG, 61 PIMs, and a -11 plus/minus in 41 games played before the injury.

Kuraly exited Tuesday's 3-0 loss to the Montreal Canadiens after playing only 9:21 time-on-ice due to a lower-body injury. The 31-year-old Kuraly already missed an extended period of the season with an abdominal injury. He has 17 points (9G / 8A) in 51 games this season.

With Matt Grzlecyk away from the team due to an illness, Peeke gets the opportunity to make his team debut with the Bruins. Peeke was acquired last week before the trade deadline from the Blue Jackets for Jakub Zboril and a 2027 third-round pick.

The Senators, amid a seven-game losing skid, will turn to Korpisalo for the third straight time on Tuesday. Korpisalo allowed two goals on 21 shots (.905 SV%) in his last outing, a disappointing 2-1 loss to the San Jose Sharks. The Senators enter action as slight -100 home underdogs against a Pittsburgh Penguins club that has been miserable lately, being outscored 15-1 in their last three games (0-3-0).

Soderstrom will return to Tucson after being recalled on an emergency basis on Friday. Travis Dermott (illness) will presumably re-enter the lineup in his place.

The Bruins will continue their typical goalie rotation on Monday as Swayman will be back between the pipes after Linus Ullmark got the nod in Saturday's win over the Penguins. Swayman picked up yet another victory his last time out, allowing just a single goal on 29 shots as the Bruins cruised to a 4-1 defeat of the Maple Leafs. The 25-year-old netminder hasn't lost a game in regulation since February 15th. He's got a great chance of staying in the win column on Monday with the Bruins being -240 favourites over the Blues.
