Monahan has had an extremely disappointing season, scoring just 10 goals with 18 assists (28 points) in 50 games. Playing through a hip injury could help explain some of his inconsistencies throughout the season. The final four games are completely meaningless, so shutting him down now ensures he'll be ready for the start of the 2022 season.

Kuraly is one of 16 regulars who will not be in the Bruins lineup on Tuesday. The Bruins will need to recall multiple players from their taxi squad/AHL to fill out their lineup.

Kukan has been in the lineup for seven straight games but will sit Friday vs. the Red Wings. Scott Harrington will replace Kukan.

Fabbro has been out since April 6th but could be back in the lineup Wednesday in Columbus. Fabbro scored two goals and nine assists (11 points) in 38 games this season. He will likely replace Alexandre Carrier if he can play.

Gambrell will come out of the lineup on Wednesday due to a foot injury. Alexander True will draw in to replace him and centre the third line with Kevin Labanc and Noah Gregor.

Labanc missed Monday's game against the Coyotes but will replace Jeffrey Viel in the lineup on Wednesday. Labanc, who has 25 points (10G / 15A) in 47 games, will skate on the third line with Alexander True and Noah Gregor.

Kukan has been a healthy scratch for the last two games but will replace Andrew Peeke in the lineup on Tuesday. Kukan has one goal and four assists (five points) in 28 games this season.
