Oliver Wahlstrom will draw back into the Islanders' lineup Monday vs. Edmonton.

Wahlstrom, along with Julien Gauthier, will draw back into the Islanders lineup on Monday as Matt Martin and Hudson Fasching will both be healthy scratches. Wahlstrom, who will likely skate on the third line alongside Anders Lee and Jean-Gabriel Pageau, has only one point (1G / 0A) in seven games this season.

McAvoy has served his four-game suspension and is expected to play on Saturday.

McAvoy was suspended for four games following a hit to the head on October 30th but he's eligible to return to the lineup vs. Montreal. McAvoy was back on the top power-play unit in Friday's practice and enters play with eight points (2G / 6A) in nine games this season.

Korpisalo is expected to start Saturday vs. the Flames.

Korpisalo allowed three goals on 30 shots in the Senators win in Toronto on Wednesday. The win snapped a two-game losing skid for Korpisalo, who has given up at least three goals in six of eight starts this season (.902 SV%). On Saturday, he'll face a Flames team that lost in a shootout in Toronto last night and have dropped seven of their last nine games.

Jakub Lauko (upper body) is expected to return Saturday vs. Montreal.

Lauko is set to return for the Bruins on Saturday after missing the last seven games with a facial fracture. On October 24th, Lauko took a skate to the face and was forced to leave the game after playing 9:13. The Czech forward has zero points, six shots, and a -4 plus/minus rating through six games this season.

Lauko (upper-body) will not play against the Islanders on Thursday.

Lauko unfortunately took a skate to the face vs. Chicago on October 24th and has missed the last six games before being activated from the injured reserve Thursday. The 23-year-old centre had struggled prior to his injury, as he is pointless with six SOG, six PIMs and a -4 plus/minus through six games so far this season.

Morgan Geekie (upper body) has been placed on the injured reserve.

Geekie finished Monday night's contest against the Dallas Stars but suffered an upper-body injury at some point that will keep him out of the lineup on a week-to-week basis and has been placed on the injured reserve. Geekie is averaging a career-high 14:15 time-on-ice through 12 games this season, tallying three points (1G / 2A). The Bruins, who have several long-term injuries at the moment, will hope to welcome back Jakub Lauko in the near future.

He will be a game-time decision Thursday vs. the New York Islanders.

Riley Tufte is expected to draw into the Avalanche's lineup Thursday vs. Seattle.

Tufte is expected to play his second game of the season for the Avalanche on Thursday when they take on the Seattle Kraken. In his only game this season, Tufte was held without a point but took four shots on goal in 11:28 time-on-ice.

Riley Tufte
Riley Tufte has been recalled from the Colorado Eagles (AHL).

Valeri Nichushkin did not practice with the Avalanche on Wednesday as he was away from the team for the birth of his child. He has not been ruled out of Thursday's game against the Settle Kraken but if he is unable to go, look for Tufte to slot into the lineup. In his only game this season, Tufte recorded zero points and four shots in 11:28 time-on-ice.

Korpisalo will start Wednesday's game in Toronto.

Korpisalo will be hoping for a bounce-back performance on Wednesday after surrendering three goals on 20 shots before being pulled in Saturday's 6-4 loss to the Lightning. It was a disappointing start for Korpisalo after he appeared to have turned a corner prior to Saturday's defeat, registering a .921 SV% or better in his previous three starts. On the season, Korpisalo owns a .901 SV% and a 3.44 GAA to go along with his 2-4-0 record. Things won't get any easier for Korpisalo and the Senators tonight as they are +140 road underdogs against the Maple Leafs.

Patrick Brown will return to the Bruins' lineup Thursday vs. the New York Islanders.

Brown has been a healthy scratch for the Bruins previous four games but will draw back into the lineup Thursday vs. the Islanders as Morgan Geekie is out week-to-week with an upper-body injury. The 31-year-old forward has yet to pick up a point in five games played so far this season, but has four SOG, two PIMs and a -1 plus/minus while averaging only 8:54 TOI.
