The Bruins have called up Torey Krug from Providence. The defenseman will be available tonight against the Canadiens.
Krug is one of the prospects available on the trade market. Matt Bartkowski could also be a trade chip. Both could be in tonight's lineup for rival scouts to evaluate prior to a deal. Krug is the more offensively dynamic of the two young defensemen and has 10 goals and 24 assists in 55 games for Providence.
Cam Fowler was on the ice today and could be in tomorrow’s lineup, though Coach Boudreau wouldn’t exactly reveal his cards.
Fowler has played in just 6 games this season. Once he gets back into the lineup Fowler could be a good pickup. Keep an eye on him
Cam Fowler(upper body) said he has felt better and had no symptoms over last few days. Hasn't skated yet but figures to this week.
Fowler is a great young defenceman and the Ducks could use his services. He hasn't played since February 2nd and still appears to be about 10-14 days away from returning.
Cam Fowler will not travel with the #NHLDucks to Colorado today, but might join team at some point on road trip, Coach Bruce Boudreau said.
Fowler suffered an upper-body injury after getting hit by Los Angeles Kings forward Jarret Stoll. He is only expected to miss the start of the road trip but there has been no official word on a timetable for his return.
No Cam Fowler (upper body) for #NHLDucks tonight, and no definitive timetable, but Coach Bruce Boudreau said he doesn't expect absence will be too long.
Fowler was hit hard in the Ducks last contest. He is a great offensive defenceman and this is a big blow to the Ducks. According to Bourdreau Fowler shouldn't be out long which is a positive.

Torey Krug leading stretch at end of practice. Have to expect he'll be making his #NHL debut tonight #bruinstalk
Look for Krug to play on the third pairing with Joe Corvo.
Can confirm @WharnsCBCSPORTS earlier tweet- Boston Bruins have signed MSU D Torey Krug.
Krug just finished his third year at Michigan State University, scoring 12 goals and 34 points in 38 games.
Line Change
Ryan-Koivu-Pamieri-Fowler-Visnovsky
Fowler is demoted to the second PP unit. The slumping sophomore has three goals and 15 points in 35 games.
Line Change
The Ducks had the same situation last season with defenseman Cam Fowler.“He has been the same steady type player we expected right from the first day of camp,” Carlyle said of Smith-Pelly. “He did it last year in camp, too.”
Speaking of Fowler, it sounds like he will start the season on the top pairing alongside Lubomir Visnovsky. In his rookie season he finished the year with 10 goals and 40 points. Expect similar production, if not more, in his second full season as he should bypass the sophomore slump.
