Horton left last night's game in the first of the three overtimes and did not return. Tyler Seguin moved up from the third line to join David Krejci and Milan Lucic. Horton had one assist and was a plus-1 in 22:28 in Game 1.
Stalberg, who has no goals and three assists in the playoffs, said he talked to Quenneville about the possibility he would be out for opener against Boston. Bollig, listed at 6-foot-2, 223 pounds, brings a more sizeable presence against the physical Bruins compared to the 6-3, 209-pound Stalberg, who is more of a speed player.

Streit played four seasons with the Islanders, missing an entire campaign in 2010-11 due to a shoulder injury. The Swiss defenceman was remarkably consistent for the Isles when he played, averaging 10 goals and 36 assists per season, and he served as captain the past two seasons. For his career, he's scored 65 regular season goals and 223 assists in 491 games, with 248 penalty minutes.
Crawford has been excellent in the post-season. He leads the playoffs in GAA with a 1.74 and sits second to Tukkaa Rask in SV% with a .935. The Rask vs. Crawford matchup is an intriguing one as they both were not the starters the last time each of these teams won the Stanley Cup, but now they get their shot.
Rask has only lost 1 game over the last 2 series, limiting opponents to 12 goals in 9 starts.
Crawford allowed two goals on 21 shots in Game 4's 3-2 win. The Blackhawks are in the drivers seat and will look to close out the series at home tonight. The Kings have not played well on the road in these playoffs, so it will be a tough task for Los Angeles.
Quick allowed three goals on 28 shots in Thursday's Game 4 loss. The Kings lost the the game 3-2 and now trail the Hawks 3-1 in the best-of-seven series. They will turn to last year's Conn Smythe winner to give them a big performance tonight so they can stay alive in the NHL playoffs.
"I'd say it's 50/50," Sutter said of Richards' chances of playing. Richards has missed the past three games with a concussion.

The 39-year-old Russian played the past three seasons for Ottawa, recording 15 goals and 76 assists.

He's set to be an unrestricted free agent July 5.
Vokoun rebounded nicely in Game 3 after a tough Game 2. He allowed two goals on 40 shots in the 2-1 double-overtime loss. He will need to have a solid outing tonight or the Penguins will be bounced from the playoffs.
Rask continued his stellar series allowing one goal on 54 shots in 95:19 in Game 3's 2-1 double-overtime win. He has now stopped 108 of 110 shots in the series for a .982 SV%. Expect him to bring his 'A' game yet again tonight as the Bruins look for the sweep.
Daugavins in with Campbell out.
Campbell broke his right fibula and is out for the remainder of the playoffs, general manager Peter Chiarelli said in a statement. He suffered the injury when struck by an Evgeni Malkin shot while Boston was short handed in the second period Wednesday night against Pittsburgh in the Eastern Conference final. If you haven't seen this shift it is worth taking a look at because Campbell stayed on the ice killing off the penalty for some time with a broken leg.
Brookbank appeared in 24 games for the Blackhawks this season, scoring one goal. He has never recorded a point in 17 career playoff games. This is a huge downgrade from Duncan Keith, but Brookbank can bring some extra physicality and toughness to the Hawks lineup.
Crawford allowed two goals on 27 shots in Game 3's 3-1 loss in Los Angeles. The Kings stayed perfect at the Staples Center in the postseason so it won't be an easy task for Crawford to steal one on the road tonight. The Blackhawks will be without their best defenseman Duncan Keith for tonight's contest.
