Kurashev surprisingly goes from the top line to the press box on Thursday. Adam Gaudette will replace him in the lineup and Pius Suter will likely replace him on the top line.

Smith was absent from the Bruins' morning skate and will be a game-time decision on Thursday. If Smith can't play, look for Jake DeBrusk to draw into the lineup and replace him on the second line with David Krejci and Taylor Hall.
Mikheyev has missed the last two games but will be a game-time decision for the second straight contest. Mikheyev will skate on a line with Alexander Kerfoot and Wayne Simmonds if he does play.
Mrazek was originally scheduled to start Thursday against the Panthers but is dealing with a lower-body injury so Alex Nedeljkovic will start for the second straight game.
Mikheyev was scratched Tuesday in Vancouver but could return to the lineup on Thursday. Mikheyev skated on the third line in the morning skate and comes in with one goal and three assists in his last six games.
Foligno was acquired from the Blue Jackets at the trade deadline and will suit up Thursday in Winnipeg. Foligno is not the same offensive presence he was in 2015 but could pack a bit of a punch on Thursday, as he debuts on the top line with Auston Matthews and Mitch Marner.
Bertuzzi has not played since January 30th, so this isn't overly surprising with Detroit all but eliminated from the playoffs. Bertuzzi finishes the season with just seven points (5G / 2A) in nine games.
Mikheyev will come out of the lineup Tuesday in Vancouver because of an undisclosed injury. With both Mikheyev and Zach Hyman out with injuries, look for Adam Brooks and Pierre Engvall to draw into the lineup.
