Lindholm (illness) is on the ice for warmups and is expected to play against the Wild on Tuesday.

Lindholm is dealing with an illness which prevented him from participating in practice on Monday and made him a game-time decision on Tuesday against the Minnesota Wild. Lindholm scored two points (2G / 0A) on Saturday, his first two-goal performance of the season, snapping a three-game pointless skid. Lindholm's 17 points (7G / 10A) in 24 games have him pacing for his lowest point total since joining the Flames in the 2018-19 season.

Swayman will start against the Blue Jackets on Sunday.

Swayman will get the call for the back-end of the Boston's back-to-back after Linus Ullmark got the start in Toronto on Saturday. Swayman pitched a shutout his last time out, stopping all 26 shots he faced in a 3-0 victory over the Sharks on Thursday. The 25-year-old Swayman has been outstanding this season, registering a 2.17 GAA and a .930 SV% to go along with his 8-1-2 record. He is in a great spot to keep things rolling on Sunday with the Bruins being -250 favourites over the Blue Jackets.

Joonas Korpisalo will start Friday in Columbus.

Korpisalo and the Senators will look to rebound after a terrible performance on Monday when he allowed five goals on 38 shots (.868 SV%) in a 5-0 loss to the Florida Panthers. Korpisalo has more consistently been the better option between the pipes for the Senators this season, but the team has struggled as a whole lately, losing two straight, being outscored 10-3, paralleled by Korpisalo's mediocre 3.34 GAA and .902 SV% through 12 games (5-5-0). That said, the Senators are -157 road favourites against Korpisalo's former team, the Columbus Blue Jackets, who have lost two of their last three outings (1-2-0).

Mark Kastelic (ankle) has been placed on the Long-Term Injured Reserve retroactive to November 3rd.

Kastelic has missed the Senators' previous eight games due to a high-ankle sprain and was placed on the Long-Term Injured Reserve retroactive to November 3rd, Thursday. The 24-year-old bruising centre had failed to collect a point through nine games this season, but had 21 PIMs and a -2 plus/minus prior to his injury.

Jeremy Swayman will start Thursday vs. San Jose.

Jim Montgomery and the Bruins coaching staff have favoured Swayman over Linus Ullmark in recent weeks and will continue that trend on Thursday as Swayman will start for the fifth time in the last seven games. Swayman has been the more consistent of the two goalies this season but has struggled lately, as has the entire team, failing to record a victory in three straight games (0-1-1), posting a subpar .882 SV% in the process. The Bruins will look for only their second win in six games (1-3-1) against a low-scoring San Jose Sharks team (1.64 GF / GP) that has played significantly better lately, winning three of their last six (3-2-1).

Swayman will start Monday's game in Columbus.

Swayman will be back between the pipes for the Bruins on Monday after Linus Ullmark took the loss in Saturday's 7-4 defeat to the Rangers. Swayman's last appearance was a 5-2 loss to the Red Wings on Friday, when he surrendered four goals on just 28 shots. It was an uncharacteristically poor start from Swayman, but he still owns a sparkling stat line on the season with a .926 SV% and a 2.28 GAA to go along with his 7-1-2 record. He draws an excellent matchup on Monday with Boston being -250 favourites to secure the victory over the Blue Jackets.

Korpisalo will start against the Panthers on Monday.

Korpisalo was a game-time decision after returning to practice on Sunday. He did not dress for Saturday's game against the Wild due to an undisclosed injury. The 29-year-old netminder was in particularly strong form prior to the injury, registering a 4-2-0 record and a .921 SV% over his last eight appearances. He returns to face a challenging matchup against the Panthers on Monday with the Sens being slight underdogs at +105.

Henri Jokiharju will draw back into the Sabres' lineup Monday vs. the Rangers.

Jokiharju did not play on Saturday and has averaged only 12:34 time-on-ice over his last four games after averaging 17:11 in his first 14, which is also when he accumulated all seven points he has this season (2G / 5A). Jokiharju has predominantly skated alongside Owen Power this season on the Sabres' second defensive pairing.

Joonas Korpisalo (undisclosed) will be a game-time decision Monday vs. Florida.

Korpisalo participated in the Sentaors' morning skate on Monday and could be an option in the crease against the Florida Panthers. Korpisalo has not dressed since November 18th, but the team will hope he can regain his pre-injury form when he posted a 4-2-0 record and a .921 SV% in his last eight appearances.

Alexander Steeves has been loaned to the Toronto Marlies (AHL).

Steeves was recalled by the Maple Leafs last week but did not make his way into their lineup. Steeves has been enjoying an excellent start to his 2023-24 season in Toronto (AHL) with 11 goals, seven assists, six PIMs, and a -2 plus/minus through 14 games played and has been recalled to the Maple Leafs Thursday. The 23-year-old has six career NHL games under his belt and has an assist and five SOG while averaging only 7:55 TOI.

Riley Tufte has been reassigned to the Colorado Eagles (AHL).

Tufte appeared in two games in his latest call-up to the Avalanche and had a goal and an assist but has been reassigned to the Colorado Eagles (AHL) Saturday. The 25-year-old returns to the minors, where he was dominant prior to his promotion with nine goals, eight assists, six PIMs and a +4 plus/minus in 12 games played.

The Bruins have assigned Mason Lohrei to Providence (AHL).

Lohrei played very well in his first taste of the NHL, recording four points (1G / 3A), 17 SOG and a minus-3 rating in 10 games. He gets sent to the AHL along with Patrick Brown in order to make room for Matt Grzelcyk to be activated from LTIR ahead of Saturday's game.
