Kevin Shattenkirk will be a healthy scratch on Thursday, allowing Wotherspoon to re-enter the lineup. Wotherspoon did not play in the Bruins' return to action from the All-Star break on Tuesday but played in their previous two games, recording five hits while averaging just under 18 minutes of ice time.
Dumba's return to the lineup appears imminent after being a full participant at practice on Tuesday. The 29-year-old Dumba has been limited to only five points (2G / 3A) in 44 games with the Coyotes this season while playing predominantly on a defensive pair with Travis Dermott.
Jarry will return to the crease on Tuesday, his seventh start in the last eight games. In his last outing, Jarry saved 25 of 27 shots (.926 SV%) in a 3-2 victory over the Montreal Canadiens, snapping a three-game losing skid for the Penguins. Entering Tuesday's matchup against the Winnipeg Jets, losers of three straight, the Penguins are slight -111 home favourites.
Aho will sit out Monday's game against the Maple Leafs as both Ryan Pulock and Adam Pelech make their return to the Islanders' lineup. Aho has one goal and five assists in 40 games this season.
Bemstrom did not record a point in 12:23 TOI in Seattle on Sunday, and will be a healthy scratch for the fifth time in six games on Tuesday. Mathieu Olivier will draw back into the lineup to replace him in the Blue Jackets' bottom-6.
Tomasino will return to the lineup on Monday after being a healthy scratch in each of the Predators' previous two games. Kiefer Sherwood will sit in his place. Tomasino has five goals and 12 assists in 38 games this season.
Wotherspoon will fill in for Kevin Shattenkirk, who is out with an undisclosed injury. Wotherspoon has no goals and three assists in 18 games this season.
Cody Glass will draw into the lineup in favour of Tomasino, who has been held off the scoresheet in three straight games while recording a -1 plus/minus and three shots on goal. Thursday's game against the Minnesota Wild marks the second time in three contests that Tomasino has been a healthy scratch.
Dumba played only 7:12 time-on-ice in Monday's victory against the Pittsburgh Penguins before exiting the game with an upper-body injury. The Coyotes recalled Victor Soderstrom from the Tuscon Roadrunners (AHL) on Tuesday in anticipation of Dumba being out of the lineup for several weeks.
Kevin Shattenkirk will draw back into the lineup on Wednesday, prompting the Bruins to make Wotherspoon a healthy scratch. Wotherspoon played 16:43 time-on-ice in the Bruins' 4-1 win over the Winnipeg Jets on Monday, recording two shots and two hits.
Kemp made his NHL debut 10 days ago when he appeared vs. Montreal and has been a healthy scratch since resulting in the defensemen being loaned back to Bakersfield (AHL) Tuesday.

Alexeyev has played three straight games for the Capitals and has been held off the scoresheet while averaging over 16 minutes of time on ice. Ethan Bear will also be a healthy scratch for the Capitals as Rasmus Sandin and Trevor van Riemsdyk will draw back into the lineup.

Jarry will get the nod for the fifth consecutive game on Monday when the Penguins travel to Tempe to take on the Coyotes. Jarry took the loss his last time out, allowing three goals on 29 shots enroute to a 3-2 defeat in Vegas on Saturday. It was the fifth defeat Jarry's suffered in his last six starts, despite posting a respectable .910 SV% across that span. He's got a good chance of getting back in the win column on Monday with the Penguins being -150 favourites at Mullett Arena.
Cody Glass and Juuso Parssinen will be healthy scratches on Monday, allowing Tomasino and Michael McCarron to draw into the lineup. Tomasino is expected to play on the fourth line with McCarron and Cole Smith.
