Krug (ankle) is expected to make his season debut on Tuesday.
Krug will likely replace Matt Grzelcyk, who is dealing with a lower-body injury. Krug will be back on the top power-play unit and will look to build off of his 59-point (14G / 45A) campaign, that included 24 power-play points (5PPG / 19PPA).
Line Change
Thomas will draw back into the Blues lineup on Saturday.
Thomas has been a healthy scratch for the last four games, but will centre the fourth line tonight. There’s no word on who will be scratched, but early indications are that it will be Jordan Kyrou.
Krug (ankle) will not play on Saturday.
The Bruins thought there was a chance that Krug would make his season debut on Saturday, but head coach Bruce Cassidy said that he is “looking good for Tuesday.” The Bruins will continue to roll out a patchwork bluline with Krug and three other defensemen injured.
“There’s a chance” that Torey Krug (ankle) plays on Saturday.
Krug has missed the first 10 games of the regular season but could make his season debut on Saturday. Krug’s return would be a huge boost for the Bruins, who’s blueline is missing Charlie McAvoy, Kevan Miller and Urho Vaakanainen. Krug is coming off of the best season of his career, picking up 14 goals and 45 assists (59 points) in 76 games.
Line Change
Thomas is expected to be a healthy scratch on Thursday.
Thomas has picked up just one assist in five games this season and will remain out of the lineup tonight vs. the Blue Jackets. Thomas has not played since October 14th.
Dube (undisclosed) will be back in the Flames lineup on Friday.
Dube missed Wednesday’s game with an undisclosed injury, but will replace Austin Czarnik tonight vs. the Predators. Dube has recorded one assist while averaging 11:38 TOI/GM in his first five games.

Buchnevich will draw back into the Rangers lineup on Wednesday.
Dube (undisclosed) will not be in the Flames lineup on Wednesday.
Line Change
Walker will draw into the Capitals lineup on Wednesday.
Line Change
Thomas will serve as a healthy scratch on Wednesday.
Line Change
Buchnevich is expected to be a healthy scratch on Tuesday.
Buchnevich has two goals and one assist in five games this season and it looks like he’ll come out of the lineup for Cody McLeod on Tuesday. The Rangers have not confirmed that he’ll be scratched, but he was totally off the power-play and rotated on the fourth line in Monday’s practice.
Dube (lower-body) will be a game-time decision on Thursday.
Krug will miss at least three weeks with a left ankle injury.
Krug suffered an ankle injury in the Bruins preseason finale and will be in a walking boot for three weeks. Krug will be re-evaluated after that period of time and his injury could leave the door open for rookie Urho Vaakanainen to make the opening night roster.
Krug is day-to-day with a lower-body injury.
Krug was forced to leave the Bruins’ final preseason game with a lower-body injury, but head coach Bruce Cassidy did not have an update on his status. Consider Krug day-to-day until the Bruins release an official timetable. This puts his status for the Bruins’ season-opener in jeopardy.
Krug (ankle) will not play in Game 5 and could be out long-term.
Fowler is expected to miss 2-6 weeks with a shoulder injury.
The Ducks are still battling for a playoff spot in the final week of the season, so this is a huge loss for them. Even if the Ducks are able to hold onto their playoff position, the loss of Fowler will hurt their blueline in the post season.
Carlo (lower-body) did not travel to Philadelphia for Sunday's game.
Carlo suffered what appeared to be a very serious leg/knee injury in the Bruins win over the Panthers on Saturday, so it is not surprising that he stayed back in Boston. Carlo will undergo some tests before the Bruins reveal a diagnosis and timetable, but it looks like Carlo's season is over.
Krug (upper-body) will “most likely” play on Sunday.
Krug has missed the last two games with an upper-body injury but is expected to play tonight in Minnesota. Krug has four assists in his last two games and 39 total on the season to go with 13 goals (52 points) in 62 games.
Line Change
Johnston will draw back into the Islanders lineup on Saturday.
Johnston was a healthy scratch on Thursday but will replace Chris Wagner tonight vs. the Blackhawks. Johnston has picked up just six points (3G / 3A) in 17 games this season.
