Ritchie (upper-body) will be a game-time decision on Tuesday.

Ritchie has missed the last five games with an upper-body injury but skated on the third-line in Monday's practice and head coach Bruce Cassidy anticipates him playing on Tuesday. However, he is still listed as a game-time decision so monitor his status during tomorrow's morning skate in New Jersey.

Ritchie (undisclosed) will return to the Bruins lineup on Monday.

Ritchie missed Saturday's game vs. the Senators with an undisclosed injury but will play vs. the Penguins. Ritchie will be back on the Bruins third line with Charlie Coyle and Anders Bjork and comes in with two goals on 18 shots (11.1 SH%) and one assist in 11 games.

The Senators have signed Anthony Duclair to a one-year extension worth $1.65 million.

Duclair was acquired from the Blue Jackets as a part of the Matt Duchene trade and drastically improved his numbers in Ottawa. Duclair saw over 1:30 TOI more per game with the Senators and scored eight goals with six assists (14 points) in 21 games. With a lack of talent in Ottawa heading into 2019-20, Duclair should continue to play a middle-6 role for the Senators.

The Senators have acquired Anthony Duclair, a 2020 second-round pick and a 2021 second-round pick from the Blue Jackets for Ryan Dzingel and a 2019 seventh-round pick.

Duclair has fallen out of favour in Columbus but is a player who possesses a lot of potential and upside. Duclair has scored 11 goals and eight assists (19 points) in 52 games this season. Duclair could play a big role in Ottawa with the team selling off most of their top players at the deadline.
