Bennett (upper-body) returned to practice on Monday.
Bennett missed Saturday’s game vs. the Oilers, but was back at practice on Monday, which suggests that he will be back in the lineup on Tuesday vs. the Capitals. Bennett skated on the second line with Mikael Backlund and Jiri Hudler. The 19-year-old has one assist in four games this season.
Marchand (concussion) will be back in the Bruins lineup on Saturday.
Marchand missed two games with a concussion but he will return to the lineup tonight vs. the Coyotes. He has no points and seven shots on goal in two games. With Marchand back, Brett Connolly will be scratched.
Line Change
Reinhart is expected to be in the lineup on Monday.
It looked as if Brian Gionta was going to return to the lineup on Monday which would have forced Reinhart out, but GIonta will sit for the third consecutive game, which means Reinhart should stay in the lineup.
Line Change
Gudas will make his Flyers’ debut on Monday.
Gudas missed 51 games a season ago after undergoing knee surgery and now 225 days after being acquired from Tampa Bay, Gudas will finally make his Flyers debut. Gudas is a rugged defenseman, who Flyers fans should love as long as he can stay in the lineup. He isn’t really known for his offence having registered just 32 points (7G / 25A) in 126 games in his career.
Line Change
Reinhart could be a healthy scratch on Monday vs. the Blue Jackets.
Reinhart registered one assist and two shots on goal while averaging just 10:58 TOI in the first two games of the regular season, but with Brian Gionta on pace to return to the lineup tomorrow, it looks like Reinhart may sit. He skated as the extra forward, working in and out on lines during Sunday’s practice which suggests that he will be out vs. Columbus.
Marchand is out indefinitely with a concussion.
Marchand suffered the concussion on an inadvertent elbow from Dale Weise on Saturday night. Bruins’ coach Claude Julien confirmed that Marchand is out with a concussion and there is no timetable for his return.
Marchand left Saturday’s game with a head injury and did not return.
Marchand left last night’s game and was not on the ice for Bruins’ practice this morning. Immediate concern is that Marchand suffered a concussion, which could sideline him for a little while. The Bruins play on Monday, monitor Marchand’s status heading into tomorrow’s morning skate.
Markstrom will not dress on Wednesday due to a lower-body injury.
Markstrom tweaked a lower-body injury in Tuesday’s practice and is unable to suit up as Ryan Miller’s backup tonight. Markstrom will be evaluated later today to determine the severity of the injury and how much time he will miss. Richard Bachman has been recalled to serve as the backup.
Line Change
Gudas will be a healthy scratch in the Flyers’ season opener.
Gudas had been skating among the Flyers’ top six defensemen throughout the week, but he will be scratched in the opener and Luke Schenn will play.
The Canucks have re-signed Jacob Markstrom to a two-year deal worth $3.10M.
The Flames will burn the first year of Bennett’s contract when he plays in Game 3 on Tuesday.
Bennett will suit up in his 10th game of the season, which will burn the first year of his entry level contract. The Flames will not hesitate to burn that year, because Bennett gives them a chance to win. The 18-year-old has three goals and one assist in eight playoff games.

Goalie Start
Markstrom gets the call in Arizona.
Markstrom has made two NHL appearances and as it stands now, he is 0-1-0 with a 10.21 GAA and .500 SV%. He went down to the AHL last weekend and went 2-0-0 with a 1.42 GAA and .943 SV% so maybe this time around he will have a little more confidence. He draws a great matchup for people who are in a pinch fora spot-start—the Yotes have lost seven in a row.
