Carey has 13 points (7G / 6A) in 17 games with Providence this season. With Patrice Bergeron out, Carey comes up to make his season debut.

Bergeron is day-to-day with a lower-body injury. Head coach Bruce Cassidy said they don't want the injury to linger so they'll take him out immediately. Paul Carey was called up from Providence (AHL) and will replace Bergeron in the lineup.

Kotkaniemi has missed the last seven games with a groin issue but will play against the Devils. Kotkaniemi has had a slow start offensively, scoring just two goals with one assist in 12 games.

Byron will come out of the lineup due to a lower-body injury that he suffered last night in Washington. With Byron out, Jesperi Kotkaniemi will be making his return to the lineup.





Elliott allowed two goals on 40 shots in the Flyers win in Toronto last Sunday. Carter Hart started the last three games, including last night in Ottawa, so Elliott will face the Islanders on Saturday night. He is 2-0-1 with a 2.93 GAA and .897 SV% in three home starts and stopped all 19 shots he faced in relief in their first game vs. The Islanders.

Zadorov ended up only missing three games with a fractured jaw that he suffered just over a week ago. Zadorov will likely replace Kevin Connauton on Colorado's third pair.
