Bergeron (arm) will not travel to Montreal.
Bergeron will miss his third straight game on Monday and will be re-evaluated later in the week. The Bruins return to action vs. the Lightning on home-ice on Thursday, so monitor Bergeorn's status heading into that game.

The Blackhawks placed Tyler Johnson (concussion) on IR.

Bergeron will miss the next two games with an infection in his arm.
Bergeron was returned to Boston to have his arm treated, so he'll miss the last two games of the Bruins' road trip. Jack Studnicka was recalled from Providence (AHL) this morning and will take his spot in the lineup.
Zacha (upper-body) is doubtful to play Wednesday in Calgary.
Zacha left Tuesday's game with an upper-body injury just 2:40 into the game after getting hit while taking a shot and sliding heavily into the boards. Head coach Lindy Ruff called him doubtful to play Wednesday, so look for Mason Geertsen to draw into the lineup.
The Bruins have signed Mike Callahan to a two-year, entry-level contract.
The Stars have reassigned Riley Tufte to Texas (AHL).
Tufte played in three straight games with the Stars but was sent back to the AHL to make room to call-up Adam Scheel from the AHL. Scheel is needed to serve as Jake Oettinger's backup with Braden Holtby dealing with an injury. Jacob Peterson will replace Tufte in the Stars' bottom-6.
